Although this brother from our own backyard is an international superstar in sonic experimentation, there are still throngs of heads who have no clue he is. That's about to change real soon as Britt releases Adventures In Lo Fi- his first completely Hip Hop based album from emerging heavy hitting label BBE.

Right from the start it's all Philly love with Rich Medina waxing poetic over Planetary Analysis's comfortable groove. Rich also wraps everything up with his introspective foray into the Adventures Of Lo Fi. Welcome Bahamadia turning in her typical phat lyricism on the jazzed, early 80's R&B track. Next up from the 215 is Grant Agent displaying his considerable skillz on Stay Free- a true head knocker for an early spring drive in the Illadelph. Mixtape makers will enjoy the repetitious (in a good way) bounce of Caught Out with rapper Capital A. It's no doubt got that smooth Philly sound to it. Add their collab Next Plateau to that category. Comin up north, Pos and Trugoy of De La Soul nail it on Cobbs Creek (Great Skate remix). Party cut all the way. You know that stuff playin in the park while oldheads are manning the grill and kids are running around. And you, you're just chillin on a bench taking it all in.

Of course there's much more to the album (Dice Raw, Lady Alma, Miss Saigon, Kai Chi and others) but my observations to this point should serve the purpose of enticing you to represent King Britt like he represents us... all over the world.
