After the Sloshpot EP alongside Mr Boss earlier this year (check our review here), it was only a matter of time before Uk Hip Hop’s favourite loudmouth Dirty Dike was back, this time with his third solo album. What I was unsure of however, was which way the album would go in. Sloshpot showcased both [...]
Anyone that knows me may have noticed that I’m not the best at mornings, so as soon as I saw the title of UK vet Verb T’s latest album on High Focus Records I was already pretty much sold. Do you care about my sleeping patterns? Probably (/hopefully) not, but seeing as Verbs is one [...]
Other than his early summer Ep More Dynamite, mic veteran Verb T has been fairly quiet in terms of solo output recently, despite keeping himself heard as one quarter of The Four Owls and plenty of guest verses. He’s set to return with a bang this October though, with his first solo album on High [...]
Young producer Mr. Boss suprised a few UK Hip Hop heads when his free debut LP, The Landing, dropped in with a massive thud to make necks swivel in 2010. Featuring a whole host of the UK’s creme de la creme, but not simply all the usual suspects, on the mic, his tight, weighty beats [...]
Boot Records just dropped this ill joint, produced by Boot Productions, featuring High Focus vet Verb T alongside Louie G. It goes without saying that Verb’s flor on this fairly dark, raw beat is sick, but it was Louie G, a name I heard here for the first time, that really surprised me. His slightly [...]
Fliptrix is a name that needs no introduction to anyone who’s been reading anything I’ve been saying for the past year or so, or anyone into their Hip Hop in general. The founder of High Focus, one quarter of recent super crew The Four Owls and with two solo albums under his belt already, the [...]

They’re not one of those brands just out to make a few pounds off garms, but actively support all elements of Hip Hop and the surrounding culture, from hooking up mcs, djs, writers, skaters, bmxers and break dances through sponsoring events. So it [...]
We’ve been here almost two weeks now and I hope we see something soon…There’s something there, what is it? …….. It’s an OWL. Did you know an owl can open and close it’s ears? In today’s world full of sub par music bombarding you wherever you look like a Coca Cola advertising campaign on steroids, [...]
High Focus comes through with the goods once again, a new single and video from the upcoming Four Owls album, Nature’s Greatest Mystery. The albums being released not only on CD but also as a limited run of 300 vinyl copies including a download card that features instrumentals, accapellas and more goodies. It’s dope to [...]
Kashmere (The Iguana Man, Vadertron, Galaktus or any of the other otherworldly pseudonyms he goes under) has been grafting and carving his own niche in UK Hip Hop for a long time now, touring and collaborating with a whole host of other heads such as Jehst, Verb T, Ghost, IQ, Fliptrix and many more, and [...]
