mike delinquent project featuring lady leshurr - step in the dance

this one was a track i heard the cut of on soundcloud a while ago and it seemed promising. cut to yesterday when leshurr tweeted that the track had been released and i heard the full monty and i was in love. basically since the first clip cut was at 2minutes and didn't include the break or the tailend.

the track itself is a quite hype uk bass track that is part dubstep, part grime and part oldschool ragga jungle. lady leshurr spits in her usual fast razortounged flow and with this one she throws in an extra amount of patios and it's awesome. her lyrics always seem to include cheeky references to other artists and i love how she does that. she includes her twist on the hook from buju banton's infamous "boom bye bye" and this is something i heard first on her mixtape "l yeah!".

there it's the hook on "stay scheming" where she goes off hard on the rick ross, drake & french montana track of the same name. it is still quite controversial to reference to "boom bye bye" but i feel more comfortable when leshurr does it rather than jay-z.

anyhow the song is a quite a club banger for the first 2minutes and then there is that break where you hear crowd noises, leshurr singing a bit sweet and big reverbed claps that seem to build up for something. right when she says the magic words "drop the bass, out, go", my ears are greeted with amen drums and the bassline and leshurr that goes off harder.

the tailend is actually the most clichéd part of the track as you might as well play lennie de ice's "we are i.e." instead if you need something like that or a shedloads of other jungle techno tunes. but and that's a big, so i repeat it, but it's still does the trick. atleast for me, i hope for others as well. boh!

buy here (itunes)

ps. the zed bias remixes are decent but i was really disappointed in them as i expected more from him.
