I was pretty excited to get a note through on this one, I've been a huge fan of Sonny's DIY approach since appreciating his aesthetic in Brum in the early noughties where witnessing his freestyle and performance skills blew my mind. From excited to completely gassed, this album is a banger.
Sonny's are always incredibly creative and imaginative; and his real life in which he clearly makes major, although admittedly smoke screened, moves makes this artistic work in particular incredibly compelling. Sit and try sifting fact from fiction through all these tracks - and if you are struggling to make your mind up look closely at this incredible album cover, especially if you know anything about Coutts. In the vein of Planet Asia the wordplay, super-smooth samples, laid-back flow and casual humour makes this release a true Hip Hop classic.
Quotables abound "Bread maker, man aint wearing no Ted Baker, Im Making moves like a chess player, my door swinging like Will & Jada my connect come from Venezuela, he's carrying around the pump like a Ventolin inhaler"...."I know about food and stages of vegetation, my girl knows about Yoga and Meditation" SONNYJIM - Belgravia
