SLOWTHAI Vinyl & CDs

Review: Slowthai is nothing if not devise - an utterly in your face artist who, it feels, tries to be as obnoxious and off-putting as possible when he's performing live. That makes him an instant fit with the younger generation who like anything their parents will hate and for that reason he has blown up very quickly. Now comes the Northampton rapper's third album, Ugly, along with a UK tour of the same name. Rock and rap combine on woozy and dark tracks that have been made in collaboration with the likes of Ethan P. Flynn, Jockstrap's Taylor Skye, Beabadoobee guitarist Jacob Bugden, drummer Liam Toon and more.
