The first track to be released from Funky DL’s “NANE” album comes in the form of a straight-up-hip-hop banger in which DL expresses his lyrical confidence, gravitating his flows almost effortlessly over the rugged soundtrack. With tailor made cuts from the UK’s finest hip-hop DJ, the Numberman DJ 279, the pair exemplify the nostalgia of real hip-hop in just less than three minutes. DJ 279 was the very first DJ to EVER play a Funky DL record on the radio back in 1995, but the two had only ever collaborated their creative efforts on the 2009 tribute mix-tape to the late J Dilla, entitled “Dedication to the Fairer Sex”. What makes this track so special is not only the obvious creative audio excellence the two demonstrate, but also the unblemished history between Funky DL and DJ 279.
