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. Long Beach MCs Andy and Dizzy, tell it like it is, “We don’t give a rat’s ass if you clap or boo,” over classic wax scratchin’ by DJ Young Einstein. In pursuit of the old skool breaks, ‘Yudee!’ is as good as you’ll find, (get it? U.D, Ugly Duckling). ‘Yudee!’ is just one of 12 bangin’ bass funk, big horn hip hop tracks. No over the top swearing or gangster rap nonsense; ‘Andy vs. Dizzy’ and ‘Shoot Your Shot’ stick to their core braggin’ theme and DJ Young Einstein is on great form. ‘Slow The Flow’ and ‘The End Of Time’ is as chill as they get (which is not very) so you get big bang for your CD-buying buck here. Sure, it’s not easy being Ugly and they are not going to get any prizes for originality but as they say, their aim is to ‘Let It Out’. The tracks are recorded like it was a gig and if they can repeat this live on stage; it’d be a great show. See them say “All I want to do is rock the mic” (‘The Breakdown’) on the tour and you’ll be able to shout ‘Yudee!” when they go “Tell me who you came to see?” ‘Yudee!’ is going to be the single backed by ‘Shoot Your Shot’ and they’re live in Europe up until May. On the strength of the CD, that’s a must see. Hectic mix nomination: ‘Let It Out’ Reviewed: Ugly Duckling - Bang For The Buck (All City Music) Cat. No. Release Date: April 2006 Link: |
