Ed Rowe is fast becoming one of my favourite MC's. Last year, The New Beatmaker called Ed Rowe & producer Concept's 'Essenchill' project 'cohesive and rewarding...golden-era inspired hip hop, full of nimble lyricism and skillfully chopped jazz and soul samples.' (full post and album stream here). Here's the video to one of the project's highlights, the wake-up call What's Goin on'.
And if that is not enough goodness for you, here's Ed Rowe's brand new 'On Clouds 9' project which sees the MC going in over the top of some of his favourite cuts from Apollo Brown's acclaimed 'Clouds' album.
