Nothing had quite prepared me for this! A gem of a hip hop EP by the dynamic duo who have pioneered Christian rap in the UK. Now at long last they've been given an opportunity to record something seriously phat while giving Justin plenty of chance to wax lyrical. I love "Metaphors" ("Opportune moments come so seldom/Have to make the most of them so grab 'em and weld 'em/Paragon of clarity, other things I'd rather be/Metaphoric fuel to the fire of my sanity"). As the man spits out on the title track he's not a "hard street criminal" but he has "complete control of a syllable" and can "chit the chat like Patrick Moore". Totally original, totally British and an absolute delight. HOG are going to be leading a throng in hip hop worship at Cross Rhythms festival in July. Be there.

Hi,

I really like the cd: Booitz. But I was wondering if I can get the lyrics of the songs.
