First things first this isn't a comeback as regardless of who has come and gone in UK Rap Giggs is one of the few artists to solidly maintain his position with the fans as well as fellow Rapper and here is the STR8 MURKIN mixtape which see's the Peckham & SN1 representative take things back to the streets with a handful of some of the hardest freestyles and remixes i have heard in a while with Giggs reminding the fans why he is number one at this street shit.

collaborations as usual with Giggs are never forced and we have Kano, Kyze, Skrapz. Suspect, Buck OTB and more attacking some stellar street beats from Mr Virgo, Urban Monk, Pablo Productions and Boom productions among others who all bring that good old gutter sound which always works well for Giggs laid back and aggressive flow.

It's actually wrong to say there are any stand out tracks on this mixtape as the whole tape bangs like a set of African drums from the beginning to end making it another solid addition to Giggs past classic mixtapes.

Peckham South London Rapper and SN1 representative Giggs has dropped the full version of his 'Im on one' freestyle which is his remix of Young Money US Rapper Drakes track but once again the UK Rap version is slightly better as Giggs gets it popping with some hard bars.
 This,I'm sure you will agree is definitely a return by Giggs to his earlier style with the same grittiness which caught many's ear in 2009 not too sure where this is going to end up but knowing Giggs's work rate there's probably a mixtape on its way.

Review - FemFel - Eyes Closed

Peckham in South London has been the breeding ground of a lot of talent within the UK Rap scene and like fellow Peckham Rapper Giggs, Fem Fel has consistently released Hot tracks which have managed to create enough Hype around his work to the point of being signed by Ten Ten records and after dropping legendary UK Rap mixtapes such as 345 and Fem Fel vs Blade as well as some memorable verses on others projects and freestyles Fem Fel has released his long awaited debut album Eyes Closed.
Eyes closed is a Musical Odyssey from the onset with Fem Fel exploring a wide range of instrumentals and musical backdrops starting with the triumphant sounding Intro which with its Horn led beat see's Fem Spitting ("Real Trapstar on a paperchase,doing the Rolex sweep with an Ace of Spades,Errrgh,we ain't the same,In my hood Ni**as die and we ain't amazed,I tell em find a good place to save and don't showboat till you know the safe is safe,Ni**as talk too much when they face the Cage and A Goon runs up with a face of Rage")
Eyes Closed is the same old Fem Fel and although there are a few more radio and Club friendly tracks His lyrics and subject matter haven't changed which is a blessing as most UK Rap artists sacrifice this on Label releases but Fem Fel hasn't diluted his musical output which is refreshing.
This Album is diverse with a wide range of topics and emotions and tracks to check on this album are, The infectious Trapping anthem Money,Money,Money, Mister,Mister,Put it in a Bag which is The UK Swag anthem featuring fellow South London UK Rapper Blade Brown,The realistic and vivid lyricism over slick production on Jail Tails is epic as is the emotional and hard hitting Hero is a deep track and probably the strongest on the album as Fem Fel drops rhymes about a love lost
("And If you don't want to stay jyst tell me you don't, and if you don't want to tell me just tell me you fold,I'm starting to feel like I'm in live with my foe,can't take these nights but I don't want to go,They didn't give me the Job I came home and you couldn't even give me a hug,eyes welling up thinking bout what we become,starring at the ceiling thinking what have I done")
Eyes Closed as a debut album isn't devoid a few flaws with a few tracks Floating and Lemme Know suffering from lack lustre production but apart from these It is a very well executed project and one which puts UK Rap in a good place as It shows Artistry as well as development as Fem Fel shows a lot of improvement especially in his delivery and also manages to drop an album made by himself without packing it with irrelevant features.
("Nothing like my Brother no walk in the Park,I had to drop a few rappers trying to walk in my path,I ran across a weak bridge,I aint walking it last,I'm different I'm real,I talk from the heart")
No truer a word can be said of this Album as Fem Fel does what many a rapper need to start doing and talking from the heart and not being afraid to be different.
9.5/10
A very Hot debut and one strong enough to get you to open your eyes to the level of Fem Fel's Artistry.

Review - Big Chess - Slap a Snitch mixtape

Big Chess's mixtape S.A.S - Slap a snitch has created a street buzz for the Peckham,South London representative whom entered the public eye on the back of a war of words with a English Frank which was a very risky step for Big Chess to make so early on in his career as it could have led to him being seen as a hater or an MC who is  only worthy of attention when he's beefing and can't make music.
Fortunately  that's not the case here as  Big Chess proves with this mixtape.
Slap a snitch is filled with tales from the South London streets,The highs and Lows of Street Life,forgotten street morals and a good dose of reality as Big Chess keeps it thorough on tracks such as Adidas Music, S.A.S slap a snitch,Just Corn dem
("Modern day Moses,with a Big stick,Imma turn a boy red when I push this")
There are a few lessons for the youngster as well as moments of insight into his life such as My Strife feat Kara Leiana & How's my life  But its his Brash arrogance on tracks such as 'P.M.S - Peckham man soldiers'and 'Needs No introduction' That work best on this mixtape with Chess dropping some classic lines  like
("I'm sick and tired of this UK Rap, everybodys talking Gwop,but I ain't seeing a lot,and everybody's got weight,If you got it like that come shot me a box mate")
Slap a snitch for all its higs does suffer from a few lows, for one the host Samzy Actor is highly annoying and should have been replaced by Mykal Million,Dice or Big Ryde.The other problem is Big Chess has a slight tendancy to drop the occasional uninspired rhyme as well as average performances on a few tracks.
That said for a debut mixtape from a relative new comer this mixtape bangs in all the right places as well as stands head and shoulders above a lot of the rubbish floating around from a lot of these inexperienced MC's as there is an immediate authentic feel to his music unlike many of the others.
Slap a snitch is a good entrance to the UK Rap game and should hopefully lead to more from the Black Gang Ryder.

8/10
