One Self are back and this time they're flying! The trio consisting of Yarah Bravo, Blu Rum and DJ Vadim have already generated a considerable buzz with their first
single, "Be Your Own". But that was just a warm up compared to the cooled out boombappery of the truly magnificent "Bluebird", the latest release from the forthcoming album, "Children of Possibility".
With a twiddled guitar loop, perfect bass stabs and the kind of rock solid beat that Vadim has made his own, the Russian Percussionist builds the perfect platform for Yarah and Blu Rum to trade witty, clever,
melodic raps. In the Native Tongues tradition of conscious, fun and, crucially, funky hip hop, this summery slice of rap should keep the underground happy whilst simultaneously igniting the passions of Kanye fans and even having the B.E.P.
fraternity raising their lighters!
"Fear The Labour" finds One Self ramming home the polical point over another classic Vadim rhythm, this time on a more folky, son of the soil type tip, while the revox goes international with the
addition of the Spanish MC, Tremendo.
To round off the package, check out the sun-kissed video promo for "Bluebird", shot in Barcelona and beautifully reflecting the laid back, confident quality of the music. Zippedy-doo-da it ain't
