Well-known and respected for his collaborations with artists like DJ Format & DJ Fase, Canadian MC Abdominal has decided it’s time to go solo with his debut long player “Escape From The Pigeon Hole”, from which this is lifted. “Pedal Pusher” is different to your standard rap tale, as Abdominal relates life experiences against a backdrop of cycling eulogies from the point of view of a bike courier. Boasting the production talents of Ugly Duckling’s Young Einstein it’s a real grower, tenacious hooks and fluid beats helping to hit it home. “Radio Friendly” finds Cut Chemist on the boards, slicing up pure funk for Abdominal to take apart the more vapid cultural obsessions in a funny ‘don’t give a fuck’ observational style.
