Kid Acne
Here at the skate park this week we have 2 ‘Kid
Acne’ albums to give away. Who is Kid Acne? Well if you like your
hip hop with a tinge of old school then you are going to love this release.
Sheffield’s one man Beastie Boy and champion gob-wobbler Kid Acne
turns it up and brings the noise with a blistering new single release,
banging Gescom remix by electronic alchemists Autechre, all supported
by a rocking live tour this month.
Autobiographical ode Eddy Fresh - taken from Kid Acne’s rightly
acclaimed* Romance Ain’t Dead album - sees the rabble rousing
rapper righteously spraying braggadocio warning shots left, right and
centre. The lyrical onslaught is underpinned by mighty and thunderous
beats courtesy of Req One [Warp Records] and Acne’s fellow Sheffield
resident Ross Orton [MIA, Jarvis Cocker]. The end result is a single
of sonic shock and awe not to be messed with.
In addition to his endeavors on disc, Kid Acne [aka Ackers, aka Ken
Acid, aka Kidney Ache] will be gracing venues across the UK with his
lyrical antics and musical mayhem at the live shows listed overleaf.
As well as tearing up traditional live venues, Ackers will also be visiting
various pubs bringing his own unique Eddy Freshness to the nation’s
drinking establishments. Find Kid Acne online at http://www.myspace.com/kidacne123
