Rapping the shit out of breaks, or making breaks to rap the shit out of.
Music
From Black Sheep to Mop in hip hop, Viktor Duplaix to Marvin Gaye in soul,. UB40 to Sizzla in Reggae... and much much more in between.
big up the Bristol people!! Rogue and Vertabrae, Smurf, Koast and Mackie Skillz, Sir Plus, 3PM/Uncle Kelz the list goes on...
My mum always taught me "Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery", but I call it media thievery...
God is not great, The Incitement to discourse, the communist manifesto, Roger Red hat, Catweasel... The classics.
Heroes
People with capes or masks generally...
Rogue for being an All round/old round legend and helpin me see there's more to Hip Hop than I thought, and consistently showing faith. Good to have someone with such respect and character in your corner. Dubstep is still a step too far old boy... Enough with the Wiley videos!!
Dexter and Fu'cha for giving me an opportunity to say my bit, and then allowing me the freedom to take shit over!!
Awkward for all the open mic slots and the balls to say when you aren't feeling something.
My old man for overcoming acoholism and fixing up big time. He's definately a hero.
Mark Rae (Grand Central & Yesking Records): "B'Tol & Jagos are on their way up mother lovers!"
Hip Hop Connection "Quality", "B'Tol is a veteran of supports with a string of names, and it shows... a cut above the average regional rapper"
Mike Lewis (Hip Hop Connection): "'Something's What we've Done' is garnering heavy props for good reason - it's dope!"
Certified Banger: "Tracks like ‘People’ banish grizzly drizzly weather to the storehouses of heaven. Next
year these tracks will certainly be in my summer compilation!" "B’Tol as a lyricist is accomplished – there are no filler lyrics or concepts here. Whatever he turns his hand to topically, he succeeds at. Subject, rhymes, vocab and flow are meshed together to create material akin to Teflon – impenetrable."
Venue Magazine: "Class, the soul loop and vocal interplay between Koast and B'Tol is a case in point"
BUG (Bristol Underground): "Genuinely engaging", "Production is on point and both subject matter and delivery is constantly impressive. A high benchmark set for others to follow!"
Venue (FDB Launch): "[B'tol & Jagos] impressed with live graffiti artists. And they would have stolen the show if it were not for the final act."
As an artist, B'Tol has supported acts such as Skinnyman, Pharoahe Monch, Jehst, Blak twang and Klash amongst others.
Musical Hip Hop, with a little bit of what you like. Which is guitars if you're white...
30 minutes of music made in but a few months, with no other idea than to simply work on what we could, then cut and distribute once it reached its natural conclusion. Trying to bring a focus and over arching cohesion that is lacking in 98% of Hip hop, and at least 99.99% of UK Hip Hop.
People don't forget...
HIP HOP IS MUSIC TOO!!! PUSH BOUNDARIES, PUSH EXPECTATION, AND MOST OF ALL, PUSH BUTTONS!!
Album features Dj Rogue, Koast of Central Spillz, Da'Herbalis of First Degree Burns and Dexter Sosay of The Clap - check the profiles below yer cuntz!!
"People", used as the campaign song for Project 360 in Brizzle! Check the Vid!!
People LIVE PA with Koast - 24th May 2008
did this whilst drunk...
Who I'd like to meet: Someone who can explain this life thingy without mentioning God...
B'Tol & Jagos - free tunes!!!'s Friend Space (Top 31)
