Please note this is an old page and Fly Global Music has now moved. Please follow this link and search for the entry in the new site. In the meantime, ‘Live Fast’ is a pointer to what we can look forward to where big sweeping strings and funky bass meet earthy British hip hop rap. Think ‘Big, Big Disgrace’ for the strings with the raps traded by Lowkey and TB. This mid-tempo track is produced by DJ Snips (remember Doc Brown’s ‘Donnie’s Lament’ with Lowkey?) and the b-side finds Terrah ‘Downlaod’ Danjah on the remix. There’s a scary message in here. No matter that, “what do I care about my lungs…, smoke when my throats choking, until it bleeds, then sip my own blood until I piss it in pee”. It’s enough to make me want to quit. Shameless ends the track on the perils of living in East London so maybe it’s the message of how short life is that makes me prefer the instrumental versions. While the Radio Edit instrumental is cool, the remix goes all minimalist taking out the strings for some synth lines in click clapping. This is getting plays on MTV Base and from Ras Kwame and Colin Murray on the Beeb so he shouldn’t live too fast as we want to hear the next album. It should be good if this is anything to go by. Hectic mix nomination: Instrumentals. Reviewed: Shameless feat. Lowkey & TB — Live Fast (Dat Sound) Release date: 18th December 2006 Producer — DJ Snips |
