Review: These leading lights in the UK hip-hop scene follow up recent offering 'The King" with this new one-track bomb (surely a teaser for a new album?). Again released on regular collaborator Cut La Roc's Rocstar label, "The Fallout" is another example of The Sixth Letter's fine ability to fuse beats, rhymes and hard rockin' guitar licks like no other. Also included is a dirty version if you're feeling that way inclined or an instrumental version if you're not.

Review: The sixth letter in the alphabet is F. Which is quite convenient, really; The Sixth Letter are flipping great. Fun, too. Natural and organic but tight as hell, this is raw UK hip-hop delivered with equal measures of fury and funk. "The King" begins with an acoustic guitar groove that grows and develops on such a scale there's a heavier, rockier, more distorted second part. Throw in the instrumentals and some fine remixes from band member Fletch and Hero Number 7 and you've got yourself a fupping amazing EP.

Review: Although now based in Colchester, Cut La Roc (aka Lee Potter) originally hails from Brighton where, in the heady days of the '90s, he held a four-year residency at the Big Beat Boutique. He's still going strong; often recording with Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody and releasing solo albums (his most recent being Larger Than Life). This latest release on his own Rocstar Recordings sees Potter team up with The Sixth Letter & Kimberley Kennedy for a summery jam that recalls the hazy party tunes like "I Wish" by Skee-Lo.

Review: What we have here is a rather resplendent head nod to Cut La Roc's early days as the big beat DJ du jour. With hip-hop sensibilities and a penchant for the groove, while others swashbuckled, he strutted. This emotive, string-drenched hip-hop cut would've sounded just as good back then as it does now. Timeless, perfectly arranged, soulful and coated with some decent rhymes, it's not dissimilar to that poignant-but-funky-but-sad-but-happy hip-hop that Ugly Duckling do really well. For kicks he's thrown in the instrumental, making this a great battle tool for some hip-hop trickery -the type of trickery Cutty became known for in the first place.

Review: Firstly, what an album title! Secondly, we're glad to see UK hip-hop, rock and breaks trio The Sixth Letter doing so well - with their debut album out this week on Cut La Roc's Rocstar label. From the Led Zep-recalling opener "Fly Or Die", it's pretty clear the listener is in for a big, brash and dynamic album. The boys don't disappoint - mixing the intense lyrical insights of "Glass" with soulful and sunny choruses ("Over And Out") and hot foot funk ("Gaffer"). A perfect marriage of beats, rhymes and guitars.
