“Rap relater, rapture that attacks pure, Activator rap pro that slashes afros, Can you capture lines I manufacture? Metaphor mastermind meant to match ya”

We love having Edan perform.  He’s the embodiment of the emcee.  Unlimited knowledge of hiphop, a scary knowledge of records, he produces his own beats and has mic skills to boot.  So when he’s on stage all these talents come to the fore.

Edan is performing live in Belfast, Dublin and Galway over the weekend of  22nd April (full details here) so be sure to check him out if you are a hiphop fan or just enjoy a pretty wild rhyme-driven live show.  Another great emcee Paten Locke is supporting who was with Edan last time he was in Ireland and it’s a perfect match!

Props to Fruitman for hooking us up with this mix which continues our little series of podcasts that focus on the artists we have coming over this year as part of our 10 year anniversary celebrations.  Some well known track here off Edan’s two long players as well as some of the lesser-known EP and 12″ releases that have cropped up over the years.
