Get yourselves down to Brixton this Friday for the emcee contest that puts all standard battles in the goddamn shade. Yessir, this week sees the return of the mighty End of the Weak, as the first heat of the UK challenge takes place at Brixton Jamm.
Five top emcees will be tested in five areas of rhyming, in a quest to find the UK's best all rounder, who will then go on to rep for us in the World Final in Berlin.
If you aren't familiar with the five disciplines that the challengers will face, it will go down like this: 1st Round – written track, 2nd Round – acappella, 3rd Round – freestyle, 4th Round – MC v DJ, 5th Round – cypha skills.
Huddersfield’s answer to Kool G Rap is back, with the second banging single to be taken from the critically acclaimed 'Union Jack' album. One of 2008's most popular releases, Jack Flash's debut long player received coverage and applause from publications as varied as Q, Fast Car, HHC, The Metro and Word.
Not satisfied with his successes in world of recorded material, Jack Flash battled his way to being crowned END OF THE WEAK UK CHAMPION in 2008, defeating a host of other talented emcees. Flash will now defend his title against the world's best rappers in the global final being held on the 27th of February in London town (click here for more info!).
'Four Minute Warning' is an ode to straight spitting, hip-hop purity with top class lyricism over a chopped up soul instrumental. Massive drums provided by Apa-Tight, tighten the song to perfection, with Flash exhibiting an energy and cadence only matched by his own live show.
