Deathblow
Thought I might as well start a thread, haven't heard any mention of Plan on the forums.
I thought he was awful when I first him, and he is a little jarring to start off with. Very loud, abrasive voice (when rapping), noisy music (combination of standard hip-hop/grime beats and live acoustic guitar) and a ridiculously foul mouth. I found him interesting enough to persevere with though and he bought his album a month or so ago, so glad I gave it a shot. It may be an easy comparison to make, but he really does bring back memories of Eminem circa The Slim Shady LP. He has that raw hunger in his voice, and the same natural knack for story telling. Plus he's an excellent guitarist and a suprisingly good singer.
UK hip-hop meets folk. It can happen. For anyone who has't heard him/has heard either ''No Good'' or ''Mama'' and thinks they won't like him, I recommend listening to ''Sick 2 Def'' before passing judgment. Sounds like no other hip-hop in existence.
