Young Fathers - Get Up [Dead, 2014] [experimental hip-hop, lo-fi] Ol’ Dirty chose his moniker because there was no father to his bastard style. Young Fathers earn theirs by making something so fresh it doesn’t yet have a name. These are three fellas from Edinburgh who’ve been working together since they were 14, who have an elastic mind meld that mimics their fused sensibility of sound, who one day locked themselves in a dingy Scottish basement and came out with something that’d never been done — a fearless combination of beat, rap and song that smells not only of its dark and dank birthplace, but of discovery and of communion. I am pretty obsessed with this track at the moment. The whole album actually but this track just makes me mooooove. What do you guys think of Young Fathers?
