first heard london posse back in 1987 when i was 13,to this day a big part of my life as far as hip hop goes,not for uk hip hop but hip hop in general
I remember these dudes!! I'm from the states but I'm a big fan of BBC 1xtra, never knew that Rodney P was this dude from London Posse!! These cats were the first britsh cats I think anyone in America were even curious about other than the more US sounding Monie Love and Slick Rick...Those accents were unique. Props to them this was quality Golden Era music
london is not good right now. the vibe is stress and strife. believe. ne ways if you like hip hop try my channel. i am an underground procuder mc. its a hobby. be gentle with feedback. peace ! c0t
haha now with youtube the world gets to see how locked we had it over here, hardnoise, bushkiller, etc. the thing is (for me) that the uk carries the jamaican mix way better than the U.S. a bit 'Rockers' Vs 'Cool Runnings' if you know what I mean. dig in the well people, there's gems in them vaults if you can find 'em..
sheeit. all about that flow! dope sound. without a mufuckin doubt 90s HipHop reins over all. no contest. yeah the 80s defined it and the 70s birthed it. but the nineties took it to a whole other level. and across the planet. word up. before this Phi-Life Cypher was the only other UK HipHop I've heard was dope. anyone else this foo needs to know about??
wat a sik tune i is suprised it ent got more view dis music is dope man back in da day 1996 brings a person back blad UP LONDON Brixton, harlesden, tottenham
baaaaad tune! proper english attitude, in a good way of course. i actually interviewed rodney p for some no-mark student rag in 04, and he and skitz were some genuine top blokes, even sorted me a half pint of jack d neat, good fellas all round!
Used to have this on tape and them freestyling on Westwood, they had lyrics for days....it was awesome....wish they'd reform. Bring back Bionic-one of the best emcees ever!!!
No none of it was campden,In front of Trellick Tower off Golbourne rd W10,Edward woods estate W11,Hyde Park,China Town,Leicster Square,And Dalston Market and area. dont think I forgot anything?
Wow, this is great. Why do they all look as though they need to see their dentist. I'm loving it though. Heard Rodney P on Westwoods Capital Radio show year's ago "If it's wick wick rap, most rappers are sick of that and most British rappers couldn't hit it with a cricket bat" Rodney P 1990's ( I think this was Rodney's ad lib/ off the cuff reference to otter rappers not being up to the mark). He's got so much talent.
just remebered as well....when we shot this video (directed by kebba jabang) the tape player we used for playback was playing back slow so when i editied it all the lip sync went out after about 4 seconds.....dunno whose idea it was to use a dodgy tape deck for playback!!!
I cant believe Ive finally found this!! I taped this video 10 years ago and my mum taped over it a couple of months after.I'm 25 now and have been searching for a copy of this track ever since. Ive looked everywhere including calling people associated with the now defunct Bullit records but no luck at all. So thanks for posting the video of this version. Does anyone know if there is anywhere on the planet I can buy this record???!
I can't believe I have finally found this! I recorded this video on MTV raps 10 years ago and my mum taped over it!! I'm 25 now and have been searching for it for years.

UK hip hop at its very best.
Iam shocked to see this video I produced it!who are you scissero?be interesting to know we had a very skeleton crew and I think we did very well thanks for putting it on...
can you see how commercial 1xtra has gone since it originated! only a matter of time b4 they binned it. still it is the bbc and they gotta keep control of the masses.
this is wicked and wild...they got style :D
