BLACK ANT

It’s pretty much impossible to approach the concept of left-field, instrumental hip-hop without thinking of the late J Dilla, and although it’s more than likely that Black Ant owns a well-worn copy of ‘Donuts’, it’s also more than likely that Black Ant has a really bad case of weed psychosis too. This is hip-hop with one foot in the thuggish aesthetics of the Diplomats, and the other in the grainy, no-fi, soundscapes last heard coming out of the broken sampler of the newly re-christened DOOM.

Head over to Black Ant’s MySpace, now to download a whole world of shit...
