Here at underground hip hop we love a bit of old school. We're also big advocates of the 'new-old school'. MCs studying and learning their history and embellishing their sound with it, and those who grew up in the middle of that history and find it running through their blood still today. Whirlwind D crosses the boundaries and manages to fit in both categories. With a long list of releases under his belt, and some serious hip hop chums, he's brought his unique take on the genre to crowds all over the UK.

With this new double a-side 7 inch vinyl drop, Whirlwind pays tribute to the independent record label he represents. A solid duo of tracks with beefy rolling bass lines and quality hip hop drums, the tunes are both hard set, and softly carry a groove. B-Line Business is produced by Specifik and has cuts from Jabba The Kut. Funkier than James Brown's underpants and heavier than Jabba The Hut's ass, the tune flows fast and furious.

Whirlwind's lyrics portray his passion and dedication to the scene he loves, and together they go hand in hand through the beats presented to them. With tracks talking about the blossoming hip hop present, he also uses the double A-side to represent the history too. Battle Tip 2015 produced by Waxer has ironically grown into a head nod to some of the heavy weights of the past and contains plenty of 'easter egg' lyrics and samples for the true heads. With attitude and vigour, the track forges passed and mows down any who stand in its way.

Another solid release from the B-Line camp, and one we're happy to blare out here at Underground HQ. Long may they represent the unique and special strain of UK hip hop they do, we look forward to see what the rest of 2015 brings to our inbox.
