Mr UK, UK, aka Disorda, of the mighty one stop shop for UK hip hop Suspect Packages, has had the genius idea to blow some life back into UK hip hop by starting up a night. Since the death of Kung-Fu, as we knew it, no one in London has really stepped up to fill those legendary boots and although UK Hip hop has died a death of sorts since those glory days, it seems to have evolved and is back in the game. Suspect Packages Live is a monthly flex at Vibe bar on Bricklane showcasing a whole heap of UK talent and the best bit is it’s FREE. So, for those of you who still appreciate real hip hop, who like a nice friendly vibe (excuse the pun) and still get a kick outta watching the UK do it’s thing, show your support!

I rolled down with my fellow hip hop loving lady, Lucy Pink, to check out Micall Parknsun, Joker Starr, Tactical Thinking and Sonny jim doing their thang. I was clearly so over excited that I took plenty of pictures:

The next Suspect Packages Live is 11th December 09 so check here for more information.

UK, UK, ALL DAY! So, YNR have been in the UK hip hop game ten years son? Damn. What better way to celebrate then with a big old slap-on-the-back and a birfday bash?

I think the line up is living proof that UK hip hop is still alive and kicking! So represent, get your headnod on and come see some serious cats do their thang.
