Dan Bull 'Safe' - Album OUT NOW!!!

I heard Dan Bull a few years back and I was shocked then about how he mixed underground hip hop with a real pop indie feel . I thought in a few years he'd be on the radio smashing it up and maybe watering down his content to suit the pop market . But instead I get an e-mail saying my albums done, what do you think ? To be honest I was completely shocked , from the overall concept , sound and musical production it took me to another place . No watering down on subjects, and Dan's laid back flow and delivery still blended perfectly .

This is one release that the UK can't sleep on , check the links below about purchasing the album and the free mp3 download and my fellow bloggers reviews who can write 100 times better then me .

If you live in the UK, you can mail order the album on CD for £5 [free p&p] here:http://freshnut.co.uk/shop/

If you live outside the UK, you'll be able to mail order CD copies in the very near future from:http://www.cdbaby.com/.

You can also download the album for free in mp3 format [128 kbps] from:http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HMMBYOTZ

High quality digital downloads from sites such as iTunes, Amazon and Napster will be available soon. http://www.myspace.com/danbull

Lowkey - 'Dear Listener' LP E-Sampler & Mongrel Tracks


The best rapper you'll ever hear in your life Jon McClure (Reverend And The Makers)One of the best lyricists in the Western Hemisphere Benjamin ZephaniahHe's dope! One of the best rappers in the UK Ghostface Killah (Wu-Tang Clan)One of the most intelligent and sickest MCs DJ MK (Kiss FM + Roots Manuva's DJ)As a poet, playwright, political activist and award-winning rapper, Lowkey is one of the countrys most talented, diverse and promising artists.

Hailing from a bubbling homegrown hip-hop scene, Lowkey has successfully applied his artform to the world of indie music, without compromising the music he loves. His first official album, Dear Listener is an extremely honest and distinctly fresh project, laden with world class production from SCRAM JONES (MARIAH CAREY / G UNIT), STYALZ FUEGO (CHAMILLIONAIRE / BUSTA RHYMES), Q-TONES (LIL WAYNE) and more.

Keep your eyes peeled Lowkeys involvement in a supergroup band project named MONGREL. With Lowkey as the lead emcee, the band also includes members of the ARCTIC MONKEYS, BABYSHAMBLES and REVEREND AND THE MAKERS. This project will surely cement Lowkeys position as one of the countrys premier lyricists; do not sleep on his remarkable debut!
