Belgium isn't the first place you think of as a hip hop hotspot, but Krewcial could be the artist to change all that. Here is the full album of warm soulful beats in a Little Brother style (Phonte even appears on one track, as do Stones Throw stalwarts Kazi and Oh No, and Def Jux fella Murs) with a surprisingly good flow - no dodgy European accents on show, just pure hip hop from an unexpected source - definately recommended!
Krewcial is a producer & emcee who over the years has toured with The Alkaholiks, Blackstar, Rob Swift, Company Flow, Common, Ursula Rucker, Jill Scott, The Pharcyde, Genius/GZA, Black Eyed Peas, Last Emperor, Dwele and Xzibit. Krewcials first single for BBE (U.R.U EP) featured guest appearances from Phonte Coleman (Little Brother / Foreign Exchange), with the production skillz of Krewcial sounding like he took some lessons from early BBE Beat Generation master Jay Dee.
