25th October at Cargo, London
If you love your Hip Hop, then there is probably no better way to transform a dull, October evening, than by spending it in the company of London’s finest Hip Hop stars Skinnyman + L.Man.
Soundcrash Productions are bringing you an exclusive London show. As those autumnal evenings draw in, just knowing Skinnyman is out there does much to stave off the blues. This is his first tour after three long years, definitely an excuse for a party - but this is also a celebration for the release of the new mixtape from L.Man.
Skinnyman is one of the founding members of the Bury Cru, Skinny left the fold to start up the legendary Mud Fam with Chester P and Mongo before eventually going out on his own and releasing his stunning solo Council Estate of Mind. Whether live or on wax, he always brings a unique vitality to whatever he gets involved in. Whilst we waited on agonized tenterhooks as his album was put on hold, the man clearly showed us that he was also a master of suspense
L.Man is also causing a bit of a stir with his grimy, Hip Hop tracks. People are starting to take notice of the Brixton based lad - fans are blitzing his MySpace and he is showing no signs of relenting. His latest mixtape New Age Army on Lovedough Recordings is making waves all over the industry. The Cargo show will celebrate its release and all the hard graft that this south London storyteller has been putting in during the last five years. With plaudits from Westwood to Lady Sov, L.Man's mixture of grime, rap and slow jams seems to have him set to follow in the foot steps of Dizzee Rascal, Kano and Sway.
