After years of production and remix work the nine strong collective finally deliver their debut album. As you would expect it’s largely a broken affair and features a whole host of guest artists such as Bembe Segue, Sharlene Hector, Vanessa Freeman, Michelle Escoffery, Yolanda Quartey, Alex Lattimore, Izzi Dunn, I.G. Culture, Colonel Red and Mark de Clive-Lowe. The singles ‘Booty La La’ and ‘Sounds Like / Once Twice’ are present along with the monster ‘Redhanded’ with Bembe and Don Ricardo on vocals. The vocal hook, "I caught ya you stupid motha f**ka" is absolutely devastating. Other highlights include the Vula fronted ‘It Don’t Work Like That’ and ‘Consequences’ both of which have an 80s boogie flavour, the P-Funk influenced ‘Knocks Me Off My Feet’, ‘Happy Days’ and the conscious message of ‘Worla Hurt’.
