Flygerian Bigz – Flight Of The Navigator

Although I’m a self confessed Grime fanatic I have no shame in admitting my love for Rap, I grew up on American rap; Styles P, Rick Ross, Papoose and Jules Santana were my main love back when I was 16 and used to slick my hair to my forehead, wear baggy tracksuits and refer to everyone as ‘bruv’. (I kid you not).
In 2009 the only Rap music I came across that was UK and hot included about 80% of SN1′s rappers (Namely Fem Fel, Kyzer, Tiny Boost and Giggs), Kid Bliss’ Auto Pilot Mixtape and Skandals Hunger Pains in 2010. That’s not many, so Grime was my main UK love.
In Kid Bliss’ Auto Pilot Intro and track entitled Boarding Pass my attention was brought to Bigz and GFrsh, I immediately thought they we’re both brilliant and even thought Bigz sounded a bit like Rick Ross (which is a win as far as my eardrums are concerned). So when yesterday I saw Skepta Tweet (yes Twitter is my life, do not judge me!) tweet that Bigz was putting a Mixtape out I almost collapsed. Again – do not judge me, good music excites me!
I patiently waited. Patiently found the download link, and patiently waited for the files to download. (When I say ‘patiently’ what I really mean is that I paced round my room cursing my laptop for taking so long and wondering whether maybe I should chuck my Mac out the window and ‘Window’s 7″ it.) Anyway – it downloaded, I clicked, and a collective of twenty one, yes TWENTY ONE tracks popped up on my screen. At this point, I went to my iTunes and deleted Keisha Coles album (sorry Keisha but les-bi-honest your album was shit) in order to make space for the Flygerian that is…Bigz.
Best decision I’ve made in AGES!
This mixtape is [ofhadgtfhiudjaghfaihdhjdkcbjkfhjktgjkdfsjkghjkggrfjkhitjklrfij
aegrhkfjkgrgrhrtjjrygddfhtbfhijotfjklgsijrfhijtijthiogoehrre – FANTASTIC.
His flow is wpehrtgvoghudsghfoefrwhijotgiejrgjrgrfjdklrkl
His lyrical content is wp[sefhrgjfoiejgkrtiuywyet4irufoiduehwrfidhuergfihjferfidhrfe
His concepts are saohretyghopiuhrtfjkdewrgifdepofirghfdeiortudfoeirtugh
This is Rap at it’s bloody finest, I couldn’t have asked for more, and for an artist to give us 21 free tracks of pure quality with features from Wretch 32, Scorcher, & Wizzy Wow, Talay Riley, Badness, Professor Green, Baby Blue, Sway… Arghhhh it’s too much I can’t even go on.
If you didn’t get this Mixtape, then your life is a MESS right now. He’s comical, he’s confident he’s cocky – look I could go on about how great this Mixtape is forever but you really should have stopped reading this and be on 70% of the download from when you saw the first “[ofhadgtfhiudjaghfaihdhjdkcb”
My favourite track (she say’s like there’s not about 18 of them I’m listening to on repeat) is King Of Rock, now we know how much iHeart Rock so having a rock beat and successfully making it happen just makes me happy. It proves to me that he’s an artist. All of the features are hot, all of the beats are fire and I haven’t yet found a track that I don’t immediately like.
Bigz, whoever you are, where ever you are, you’ve done the UK proud!
