░░
░░ Long established as a cornerstone of the UK hip hop scene, prolific
░░ rapper Ramson Badbonez swaps the mic for the mixing desk for the first
░░ time with the release of his new album ôLead by Exampleö.
░░
░░ Throughout one of the most impressive production debuts witnessed for
░░ many years, benchmark standards are set early with a high bar. Unique in
░░ its nature, heavyweights from the USA, Canada and the UK share equal
░░ billing in a stellar line up of guest featured artists delivering a
░░ showcase of the highest quality lyricism, compelling rhymes and slick
░░ wordplay.
░░
░░ Immersed in the culture from his early teenage years, RamsonÆs wider
░░ influences of original funk, soul, rare groove and jazz are discernible
░░ in a soundtrack woven together to fuse the classic and modern eras. Laced
░░ with additional scratch sorcery courtesy of turntablists DJ Miracle,
░░ Kompoze and DJ Jazz T, each track precision cut as a backdrop for the
░░ gamut of verbal artistry to unleash their full artillery.
░░
░░ Rarely, if ever, has such an array of trans-Atlantic talent appeared
░░ together on the one record with beats forged in the streets of London.
░░ Following the frenzied beat juggling of the albumÆs intro, "Stay True"
░░ lays down the marker, a timeless slice of neck breaking boom bap
░░ ferociously torn apart by east coast warriors Reks, Ruste Ruxx &
░░ Blacastan. The raucous early exchanges transition to the cool west coast
░░ groove of ôRap to the Futureö as Dizzy Dustin, Mr Hooper & CanadaÆs Moka
░░ Only take turns in evoking the sights and sounds of earlier years.
░░
░░ The album represents a new additional chapter of a career, and Ramson
░░ reminds us of his continued lyrical prowess with sparring partner Mark
░░ Fear on the fuel injected ôNonchalantö before again switching gears to
░░ the smoky new wave flavours of ôBismillahö blessed by cerebral jewels
░░ from BrooklynÆs Justo the MC, Johaz of Dag Savage and prolific Nebraskan
░░ Sleep Sinatra.
░░
░░ The art of storytelling underpins ôWolvesö with street tales of fallen
░░ kingpins as Ramson again picks up the mic with fellow Londoners
░░ Cyclonious and Triple Darkness member Phoenix da Icefire through a
░░ journey down the cityÆs underbelly accompanied by the subtle echoes of
░░ atmospheric piano loops. The mood shifts direction again as rasping brass
░░ stabs strike up and hail the arrival of ôEquality for Everyö, Ramson this
░░ time being joined by ôthe good doctorö Chima Anya over quirky syncopation
░░ as the pair compare notes on racial justice and equal opportunities.
░░
░░ New Jersey verbal assassins Tru Trilla, Fly Kwa and Prince Ak are next to
░░ enter the ring with their raw and uncompromising punchlines delivering
░░ knockout blows to all comers on ôLame Duckö, the energy intensified by
░░ potent bass and kicks combinations that tears through defences and takes
░░ no prisoners in a sonic war of attrition.
░░
░░ Going solo on ôChinchillasö, Ramson takes down the fake exponents with
░░ sniper-like accuracy, lyrically dissecting his targets with the ease of a
░░ surgeonÆs knife before his mix of high octane breakbeat and acid-jazz
░░ fires up the engines and clears the way for Az Izz of The Outsidaz,
░░ OhioÆs Speed Walton and New Jersey natives Cymarshall Law and Quip to
░░ bring out the verbal cannons on ôReservoir Dogsö.
░░
░░ ItÆs an all UK affair on the albumÆs penultimate track as a ôWhoÆs Whoö
░░ of the local scene pile in with Ramson to trade bars on the outstanding
░░ posse cut ôBlack Hole Cypherö. Relentless business from Kashmere,
░░ Truemendous, MysDiggi, Micall Parknsun, Joker Starr, Gee Bag, Confucius,
░░ Jehst and Phoenix da Icefire precedes title track ôLead by Exampleö, a
░░ straight banger with Stateside luminaries Recognize Ali, Skyzoo and New
░░ YorkÆs Juxx Diamondz dropping knowledge through trademark dexterous flows
░░ to wrap up things up in considerable style.
░░
░░ An essential hip hop collectorÆs item with few comparisons, an authentic
░░ landmark release. This is the real deal.
