Whirlwind D Nomansland Review

Whirlwind D Nomansland Review

Before even switching on, the cover art of Nomansland makes you feel of the solitary spaces thankfully still left on these islands. Straight from the orchestral get go, you can tell this is set to be something epic. Featuring B-line fellow warriors Chrome & Illinspired, the first track lends from the britcore branch of hip hop these MCs made their names in. The album then takes us straight back to the days of b-boys and graff jams, Nighttime showing lyrical displays over funky, bouncy beats. The toe tapping How TO Get Ill grooves flawlessly as it nods to the Beastie Boys in a cleverly used sample. Whirlwind tells a story with his rhymes, brave enough to speak bluntly with honesty and integrity. The head nodding funk continues in Heroes, which takes a look at the current war between talent and fame. And then back to the heavyness for Run Fast. Another feature MC kicks off Stories From The Battlefield, my personal favourite track. Planet Of The Fakes' Inzaine suits this fearce style well, and sets up the rolling addictive beat for Whirlwind to complete in style.

Just when you think you see a pattern Star Reflex has a refreshingly bassy sound, while telling the story of hip hop's rocky past. Then Gain My Perspective comes in like an old friend and begins to draw a natural end to the album, before the gift of Think to round things off, which is a full on party tune! Whirlwind has achieved something special here, by managing to meet the old school and new in perfect union. Great production, solid rhymes, and some great feature slots. Grab yourself a copy online because the vinyl is unfortunately sold out.
