Check our boy Adam’s review and cop Problem Child’s ‘Confessions Of A Normal Human Being’ HERE
Chicago-based trio SCC (accompanied with DJ Elliven) have recently released Tres Amigos, and if you’re a fan of Ugly Duckling, A Tribe Called Quest and Too Many T’s then I reckon you’ll be a fan of these dudes too. A good mix of new and old, and the back and forth rapping between the MCs give it a nice extra punch. My favourite line so far is “Serving coffee for a living, I’ll be broke until next Thanksgiving” from ‘We Bout That’.
If nothing else you should watch the video because the opening credits starts with cows, and they’re walking around dressed up as cowboys. (More dressing up in hip-hop please).
This one doesn’t have cows in it, but hey you can’t everything eh? Look out for the third video in September.
Thanks to our homeboy SingerDread from the super world famous ThinkTank for this rad review of Crack Jon.
Cracker Jon and 2Late – Can Take The Cracker Out Of Croydon
Greetings all, I’m SingerDread, a new name here at HHLAT. I’m a rapper, producer, writer and lover of all things Hip Hop (and the other half of ThinkTank mate, gosh you just don’t know how to promote do you? – Aimee). So when I was given the oppotunity to write a review for the amazing guys and gal at HHLAT, I obviously bit their hand off at the chance. My first assignment: a High Focus release, Cracker Jon and 2Late – Can Take The Cracker Out Of Croydon.
After smashing the festival circuit and live shows touring with Verb T and Fliptrix, This is the debut album from Cracker Jon aNd 2Late. The album is Cracker Jon rapping you his story of life in Croydon set to the beautifully crafted soundtrack produced by 2Late. Cracker’s old-school rhyming style suits perfectly with 2Late’s style of production. A match made in…..Croydon? maybe, but definitely sometime back in the early 90s! This album is for the more dedicated Hip Hop listener but I’m sure I can safely assume that if you are a regular reader of HHLAT, you are exactly that. The skits on this album are perfect, and create the imagery and humour that are all over this album. Production value overall I give it 10/10 or 5 mics or discs or…..anyway it’s just very good. Another great thing about this album is the features. Everyone who features fully goes in, so I’ll list them all so as not to leave anyone out, and what a list…..
Sly Moon, Dubbul O, Smellington Piff, Eric Da Red, Dirty Dike, Lee Scott, Fliptrix, Leaf Dogg, Datkid and Strange Neighbour. All the cuts were by DJ Sammy B-side apart from one track featuring DJ Almighty.
My first review is nearly over and what more can I really say?
Great rapping, awesome production, a decent amount of decent features, and all topped off with some nice artwork. Produced by the fantastic 2Late.
So what are you waiting for?

It’s hard to pin-point THE BREED’s starting point with exact precision, what’s easier to do is predict their destination with 100% accuracy. On a journey certain to be riddled with successful en route milestones, New York City’s newest collective of rhyme- Sayers & hook-makers set off towards success riding out to their own theme music, Last Of A Dying Breed.
NYC’s cultivated cult – THE BREED come as a complete package, five rappers (Detroit Red, Jr Berlin, Ruthless, Vor and 1st lady, Kimmy IV) – names that have been steadily buzzing around underground forums and college radio thanks to their growing cult-like followers. Now together, THE BREED combine to deliver their 10-track debut opus in the form of… Last of A Dying Breed.
Essential Listening comes in the form of : “Bermuda Triangle” “Fuckin Up The Cyph (Smokerslude)” “Red’s Rum 2” “Paranoid” “Bounce Dat Ass” and “Breed”.
