Rebel MC, Top Cat in Sheffield jungle session

I just remembered that tomorrow night (Thursday October 13th) Rebel MC is headlining at Freshen Up at Corporation in Sheffield.

Features KENNY KEN, TOP CAT, TENOR FLY, DADDY FREDDY, REBEL MC, DB.O GENERAL +more.

Obviously this sounds amazing and as a Congo Natty obsessive I hope to be there, baby-driven exhaustion permitting. Any other Dissensians going?

Don't think I'm not having second thoughts, but... Rebel MC! Top Cat!

I'll give you twenty quid if you repeatedly shout "Street Tuff!" all night.

John, I don't need 20 quid, and you do, so lets just leave it there alright?

Anyway, I'm going to shout "Street Tuff!" all night anyway, cos that's what I do.

Every night.

Fuck. King. Hell.

What a great night.

Raging ragga jungle and top notch MCing from the minute I went in the door.

Fantastic friendly mad-fer-it crowd. Not a moment's bad vibes at any point. Really full (but not unpleasantly so), good gender balance, black faces (not all teenagers either Mal!). Big fat clear systems in every room.

Reggae and jungle in the main room, hip hop and breaks upstairs, jungle, live hip hop, live grime (!) in the back room.

All the local DJs were great. Kenny Ken was a legend, great selection of mid-tempo ragga jungle rollers, but his mixing was iffy. Top Cat and Tenor Fly were great (though TC appeared to mime most of Champion DJ). Daddy Freddy had huge authority.

I missed Rebel MC cos I was knackered by 1.30 and had to get up, but I don't care.

Wild party. Tempted to say it was just like way back when...

Thing was, it was the local crews who really made the event swing... fabulous night...

(Would have loved to have heard some dubstep though...)
