After a big 2013, High Focus continue their barrage of releases into the new year with the latest being ‘Be Vary Aware’ from one of the labels less flamboyant, but equally talented characters, BVA.
Fans of the rapper will remember his long time association with fellow HF member and long time friend Leaf Dog, as well as his co starring role in the Four Owls highly acclaimed debut album ‘Natures Greatest Mystery’, and will have been awaiting this release eagerly.
The album will not disappoint fans of the High Focus sound, with some banging beats supplied throughout by Illinformed and Leaf Dog, (as well as Amdek on the intoxication anthem ‘Crazy Trips’ featuring Leaf Dog.) BVA comes with a mixture of brash bravado and contemplative lyrics and covers a range of topics successfully throughout the 17 track project.
With a confident and easy to follow flow BVA discusses his love for music on ‘This Love is Love’, his disdain for egomaniacs both within the music scene and life in general on ‘Hype Man’, love for his favourite poison on ‘Weapon Of Choice’ (which features tight guest verses from Dirty Dike and Kashmere) and generally being sick on the Verb -T assisted ‘Gifted’.
Personal favourites include ‘Let Me Relax In My Cave’ featuring Smellington Piff (and a tasty horn lead Leaf Dog beat,) the previously mentioned ‘This love Is Love’ and ‘Weapon Of Choice’, and ‘Am I Going Crazy’.
This is a solid release with a good range of topics, some tight guest verses and some excellent production, and the honest subject matters will more than likely ring a bell with more than some listeners. Fans of BVA who have been waiting for this will not be disappointed.
Words; Chris

H.O.O.D Fellaz are back… and they are back for the last time! Not in the way that it’s their last release but in the way that they are never leaving the game again… this is the last time they are back!!!
With over ten years experience in the music game, H.O.O.D Fellaz (HF) came to the attention of urban music lovers when their music video ‘Myflo’ dropped on Channel U which was followed by their classic debut mixtape ‘So Far So Hood’. It was this release that cemented them in the music scene with a string of taste-makers championing their sound.
After a string of features on leading UK mixtapes HF continued to work hard releasing music videos and collaborating with various artists. In 2007 HF met up with mixtape deejay Tricksta, where it was decided that a full UK Runnings mixtape release should be recorded. The result was the 2011 mixtape release ‘New Years Resolution’, a fourteen track release that featured guest verses from Big Cakes and Raggo Zulu Rebel which was nominated for a OMA (Official Mixtape Award).
Now in 2014, HF release their brand new mixtape ‘#Back4DaLastTime’ hosted by Tricksta, a deejay who has done official mixtapes with the likes of French Montana, Red Café, Sheek Louch, Papoose and more. You’ve seen the videos on leading UK Rap channel UK Overstood already, but now it’s time to enjoy the full fourteen track mixtape excursion.
The line-up for H.O.O.D Fellaz might have changed a few times, but the message hasn’t. Core members Caeza, Trigz, Sherman Blacks and Lullaby are still representing fully along with new member Tints, and they are still about unleashing quality over quantity. HF are back and back like they never left… thank goodness it’s for the last time.
