VerbalSwardz-SagittariusHH

The international media coverage of the new “Verbal sWARdz” EP by London’s Iron Braydz continues with this 4 star review by French online “Hip Hop Reviews by Sagittarius”

Previously unaware of the artist, the reviewer opens that “truthfully this is a great discovery which I now share with you“. Written in French (obviously), it cites the influences of Wu Tang and the traditional values of hip hop throughout the record, “with lyrics sharper than Japanese knives” and reflects on the international flavour of the release due to features by London’s Triple Darkness, Kyza and Skriblah, and US artists Prince Po, Sean Price & Phat Kat : “Many of the features are local, and the international connections are legendary”

Afforded a 4 star rating, read the whole review HERE

Verbal sWARdz was released on 14th April on Iron Braydz own Unorthostract label and is available now from http://braydz.bandcamp.com

You can hear the full audio stream of the 10 track EP on Soundcloud

Although it is only the first of a series of projects planned for the year ahead, whether solo or as part of the city’s crews Triple Darkness & FuFu Gang, it is already shaping up to be one of the hottest British hip hop releases of 2014 having attracted widespread international media attention.

Latest to give their full seal of approval is Hip Hop in English, an online publication dedicated to all things within UK hip hop. They provide a database of artists & producers, and provide reviews, interviews and cover the latest video releases

Since the release of ‘Devil May Cry’ and ‘Holla@Braydz’ and of course joining the line-up at Triple Darkness his notoriety within the industry has grown to exceptional levels”

VerbalSwardz-Bearded

British online publication Bearded Magazine covers many genres of music and has consistently championed new artists they feel have genuine quality and talent.

On the day of the release of his new “Verbal sWARdz” EP, they have published an introductory feature on north London Emcee and producer Iron Braydz which acknowledges the work he has put in to date, whether when based in NYC working with DJ J-Ronin’s All Elements crew, Sean Price, Guilty Simpson and Sav Kills, or via his previous landmark releases Devil May Cry and Holla @Braydz.

One of the UK’s most highly rated lyricists for a number of years, both at home & abroad and together with the rest of his Triple Darkness crew, the article reflects “True hip-hop in the UK is reserved for underground scenes and hidden-away locales. There’s not many who can take the style to the mainstream and retain integrity – Tinie who? – but if Braydz continues the way he does, there’s gonna be a helluva lot of people clamouring to get involved.”

“Verbal sWARdz” is only the first of a series of releases planned from Iron Braydz in the year ahead – be on the lookout for this guy and check the full feature at Bearded Magazine

The EP includes features by Prince Po, Sean Price, Triple Darkness, DJ Shortee Blitz, Phat Kat, Kyza and Skriblah and is available now from Iron Braydz’ BANDCAMP
