| He Could Crush A Grape |
There was a lot of banter in the chatroom and a full house with the usual suspects and extra guests including the one and only Morgan Khan making a brief surprise appearance.
Apologies as the usual precision-tight editing was slightly off on the broadcast due to some nerdiness, the details of which I'll not bother you with. Save to say Waxer was on point and managed to bring the show to a great conclusion.
Last-minute editing may be some people's bag, but not mine baby.
Sadly to anyone who didn't catch it live, you will have missed the Easter Eggs after the show.
This included Straight Outta Tipton, a play on NWA's tune from their first album. Just writing about it now is bringing grins to my mush and tears to my eyes. The producer of this version is clearly a very sick individual who needs medical help.
Finchy's Theme was played also. This is a remixed version of Rolf Harris' Tie Me Kangaroo Down with added scratch from Waxer utilising a certain vocal ident spouting the recognition of the one and only Agent Finch by none other than our very own Simon Harris.
Lastly, Wax hit us with a very, very exclusive and hot off the press playing of his intro track to the upcoming Heroes Of UK Hip Hop Mix Swap 2011.
As with the other tracks here, these were played, as Rakim would say, only for the listeners. It pays to listen live. And to the very end.
Remember, the next ABU! Takeover is Thursday 28th July.

Ah man you made me laugh my nob off reading that! I agree, the producer of the Tiptop track is twisted of mind!!!
Super dope show man respect!!!!! Look out for this heat every last Thiursday of the month...
Supreme show Ben! Thought your playlist was spot-on, particularly nice to hear the Freestyle & Two Sisters tracks. Great Groove chart (and a good idea to pick a chart the we aren't familiar with through existing Mike tapes) and a real buzz to get my dedication read out over the Fearless Four! It goes without saying that your Mike impersonation is already legendary.
P.S. The stuff from my mum's muff?
Thanks Mark.
The Freestyle track was one I hadn't heard in a long, long while and it's really grown on me these past few weeks.
As for the chart, I asked Simmo if he could let me have a few to choose from and he came through like the trooper he is.
Think I made the right choice with this one ;-)
I've had a few remarks about my Mike impersonation and am currently in talks with both Smooth FM and Capital to begin broadcasting to the nation......!
And that muff comment is classic Jim C. If you ever happen to be in the Disco Scratch chat on a Thursday then you'll witness more where that came from =)
