Geological poop, I got shit straight and updated my Edan Deep Cuts playlist with a couple of songs I’d slept on. Dope Rhymes For Sure should be retitled Dope Song Full Stop and Rap Beautician is Edan’s musical manifesto on wax. His M.O: a smart-arse Jewish Rap nerd who did his own beats, cuts and rhymes, and created his own sound from Percee P’s first 12″. It probably shouldn’t have worked, but it very much did. Check back this time next year to see if I’ve finally added Beautiful Food.

Bonus beats: you know how Edan has a boner for 60s British Rock? Betcha he’d love How by The Jynx. Can’t decide whether this shit is like The Monkees doing a Merseybeat song or if it’s like a Merseybeat band doing a Monkees song. Either way, it has the illest Dingle alley cat harmonica.

The Jynx – How
(From How single; 1964)
