Nicky Spesh presents: Butterscotch Espinosa ‘Middle Aged Rap’ [VIDEO]

Since it’s release in September Nicky Spesh’s creation Butterscotch Espinosa has created a massive buzz hitting 25,000+ soundcloud plays THIS WEEK and breaking into the top 100 for UK Hip Hop on reverbnation. This geezer is one to watch.

His debut album ‘The World I Know’ received critical acclaim getting 5 Stars in IDJ Magazine & DMC Magazine, and his follow up EP “Return to the concubine spaceship” was again awarded 5 stars. He has composed music for documentaries on Sky 1 and Channel 4 and is now  making jingles for the itunes top 10 sports podcast http://americarnage.co.uk/ 

2012 saw a number of high profile DJ’s getting sacked for being ‘too old’ and a new and horribly untrendy demographic of ‘festival dads’ was identified. Is it possible to grow old and remain current in the internet age? This is the dilemma that Butterscotch Espinosa faces in his new single ‘Middle Aged Rap’, a record that embraces the onset of age like a drunk embracing a lamppost. 

“Its harvest and the cats come in, laid back red eyes “what’s happening?” Homework boy! Get the Latin in, no chips tonight ‘cos they’re fattening.”
