JMF vs KK – Illuminations: The World Of Sci-Fi Hip-Hop

In honour of #LP4080 by Strange U making the nomination list for Dead Albatross 2017, the men like Kamikaze and Jimmy Monsta Funk connected once more on a session last week, this time around exploring Sci-Fi influenced hip-hop.

In case you missed there last hookup you can revisit here: https://awkmo.co/jmf-vs-kk-sessions-56/

As well as Strange U and Ras G featuring throughout, this time around they’re also calling on the likes of Death Grips, Danger Doom, Ramson Badbonez, Expressway Yo Yo Dieting, Dabrye and Kool Keith to drive the direction of the two hour session. Just check the massive track listing, posted below underneath the stream of the show.

I love this concept. And it’s worth mentioning that these are the joints coming from their own record collections and what they were pulling out at the time, revolving around Strange U. Notable exclusions such as King Geedorah, Deltron 3030, Dalek and Rammellzee only fuel the fire for a second exploration in to this world that we should definitely hook up in the near future.

Also want to take a second to shout out Original Low-Fi. Released in 2009 the group was a staple on our NTS show and one of the records – along with Muslimgauze and Ras G – that really represented the collision of our approach to records. If you’ve not checked out their debut LP Black Peppermint I highly recommend you do so.
