Dust off your muskets, Freedom Fighters, the Britt ISH is here and it’s time to lick some shots. This album is true hip hop; it’s honest, gritty, and brimming with swagger. The beats, drawn from a diverse battalion of upcoming producers, maintain a head- nodding cohesion. The vibe channels that classic mid-90’s sound, but is also spiked with a subtle urgency that speaks more to the current cultural climate. They’re the type of songs that induce both sweaty dance floors and sweaty philosophical discussions. Warren’s dynamic delivery launches from quick machine gun barrages to slow shotgun blows to your chest. Topically, he runs the gamut from seduction to sedition combining a mainstream flow with an underground sensibility. From visceral storytelling to audacious clowning, from Queen samples to Passion Pit references, Warren Britt’s first ep is an epic victory. – Broke MC
