Border Crossing
Feat. Jehst - The Alias
Border Crossing are from West London
and it would seem that it is the place to be judging by
the concoction of influences these guys seemed to have
absorbed. This track is fresh. It is hip hop however the
sound is more progressive. The music seems to have all
the right urban influences to create a smooth rhythm with
crisp beats and cleverly incorporates ethereal sounds to
give an intelligence to the music. Need a comparison: Massive
Attack. Jehst is one of Britain’s best underground
MC’s who should become a household name in years
to come. On this track he continues to deliver clever lyrics
in a sharp and subtle flow. Other tracks on the single, ‘Searching
for Mr Manuva,’ are equally as good and shows an
emphatic performance from Ricky Rankin. It’s times
like this that I’m proud to be British.
