North west London rapper Da Flyy Hooligan released his new album “S.C.U.M.” on October 27th through US label 22 Entertainment.

Produced entirely by Agor with guest featured artists Westside Gunn and Hus Kingpin, it is available to buy on CD and digital formats from multiple online stores worldwide including Amazon, Bandcamp, iTunes and Spotify

The album has just been reviewed by Neil Kulkarni for renowned print publication Wire Magazine, the December issue [406] having just hit shelves throughout the UK today. Appearing on page 63 and describing his ability to pull in such luminaries for guest artists as “a testament to what a uniquely twisted talent he is“, the review sits next to those of Future & Young Thug, Giggs, L’Orange and Wu Tang Clan.

DJ Slim, aka Tom Clover, is the editor of UK online PopCulturez

Longtime fan of that classic hip hop sound, he is the latest to review Melanin 9’s new album “Magna Carta” which releases to the public on 3rd December

A typically in depth review by Slim compares the feel of the album to the Golden Era and the wordplay and lyricism of Wu Tang, Mobb Deep and Nas with that true UK traditional flow style representing real stories from the street.

“While fans of the Wu-Tang Clan will certainly find much to latch onto here, Melanin 9 also brings the power of UK crews like Terra Firma to bear, making this an impressively accomplished debut album” concludes the review
