dope stuff. these days, a lot of hiphop sounds the same. Mr. Manuva however, blends Jamaican, Brittish and American culture, forming a heavy dubbed out vibe with raps and taps for days...

One of my all time faves is Roots Manuva. Especially the tracks he does with chali 2na. That album there is my least favorite he has made so far.

I don't listen to much roots manuva, but at least he does bring something unique to the table for once in my life.

but at least he does bring something unique to the table for once in my life.\
maybe im being unfair.... due to only one listen....
but that was my complaint.
not unique at all.
all the beats sound like some old cve shit from years past [COULD be a good thing...]
and maybe im just annoyed by his voice?
or maybe since a friend told me how dope this album was, i had expectations that were too high lol

I hate "brit-hop" more than Canadian rap, but I just think he's entertaining. Must be because I've seen a few interveiws with him, it kinda gives me more of an insight to the guy behind the music, makes it a little more personal maybe. He seems like a pretty chillz guy. I don't know tho, I've only heard a handful of his tracks.

i heard that album. the beats were 50/50 but his voice gets boring when he repeats the same shit over and over.
