Swedish rapper Iron African's new album "My own little war" is now available as a free download via Whoa.nu: http://blog.whoa.nu/2010/11/20/iron-african-my-own-little-war/
I've been into the tracks of his I've heard before, so I'm eager to check this out.

Iron African - Fire

"I call the album 'My Own Little War' because I feel like I've been in my own little world doing just that. Fighting my own little war. Life can be tough on you some times but not everybody can relate so you have to do what you do best. Fight. The music sounds like the 70's on steroids in some instances. I fused a lot of punk rock and psychedelic rock over tough drumbeats. Its really up to the listener to judge but I've been told the sound has got a lot energy. I would like to think skaters will bump this album because a little while back I took out my deck and started pushin again, nothing fancy, just a little olly here, a little slide there. I was listening to my stuff while cruising and realised I felt pretty nice skating to it. So I played the album for a couple of skater friends and they felt the same way..."

Real talk! Look for Iron African's new record "My own little war" to be released this fall. Direct link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8o0lY_ULLw
