MCM - The Gospel (Sampler)

Caveman, MCM's former group and the first British hip hop act to be signed to a US label (Profile), were before my time, so I can't speak on them or what they sounded like.

It's obvious that MCM, whose album The Gospel is expected to drop later this year, sounds like he's from the States and Brit MCs mimicking their US counterparts is a symptom that has, thankfully, all but been fazed out. Check the sampler still, as the album is sounding good nonetheless.

MCM - Been So Many Places

You know those wanky videos that chumps make using a still pic? Well, this chump has gone and made a wanky one for this - the second single from MCM, formerly of Caveman. The tune, however, is certainly not wanky. I'm definitely listing this video production "skill" on the CV.

You can get your hands on the mp3 next month and his LP will be coming soon too -also on Headcount Records.

If you missed MCM's first single, Rhymes Equal Actual Life, do a click here.

MCM feat C-LONE - Rhymes Equal Actual Life

MCM used to rap as part of Caveman, an act that made moves in the early 90s on US label Profile. In less than a month, this track sees an official release on Headcount Records. The label have asked me to hold off on posting the whole track, which is more than fair enough. I really like Rinse Dog's production on this one - perfect for the summer. Feast your ears on the Youtube...err...still for the whole shebang (I would post a snippet but my Soundforge is not happy with the mp3 for whatever reason).

Also, headover to the Headcount site to get the lowdown on their roster, which includes the excellent Illustrate whose LP The Stuff is available now. I'm definitely feeling his song below. Cop the album, or do what you like...
