Our United States Of Unconsciousness

I had an appointment with my Hip Hoptician this week and they've prescribed nine rap tabs to be taken in 46 minute doses, twice a day, minimum.

Beats and rhymes from different times, cross-crossing the Atlantic and mixing up Queen Latifah with Antipop Consortium, The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy with Collapsed Lung, Monie Love with Cypress Hill. And a remix of Call It What You Want by Credit To The Nation that leaves the Nirvana sample intact.

Music with a message that makes you move? Yes indeed!

Prescription warning: High diss content. Keep out of reach of children.

    1. I hope you enjoyed it, Mooz. I'd always favoured the Ultimatum remix of Television, The Drug Of The Nation on my mixtapes in the 1990s, but good to be reminded how brilliant the album version is. I must go back to the original version by The Beatnigs too.
