WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
ORIGINAL CONCEPT ‘Charlie Sez’ (Def Jam 653032 6)
Often imitated in their absence, the wrecking krew return on a hot three-tracker with this raucously shouted then fast talked wordy 0-106⅙-0bpm scrubbingly scratched bumpily lurching chugger full of frenetic though contained activity, flipped by the jumpily jittering 110⅔bpm ‘Runnin Yo’ Mouth‘ and nervy break beat nagged 108⅔bpm ‘Gottanotha Funky Break 4-U -> Hit It!’, all equally good with perhaps the flipside pair being strongest
