SADAT X – The Okie Doke/ Theatrics – 2008 – 7” review
RATING: 5/5
It’s difficult to imagine what use an old school Harlem MC could have for a crackly, mournful cowboy lament and low-key drum and bass break and even harder to imagine it sounding good. Stetsons off to former Brand Nubian rapper Sadat X then for floating in effortlessly from the way off in the outer reaches of the leftfield with a rhyme about the hard life of the ordinary folks on blissed-out gem of a B-side Theatrics. Piano-tinkling A side The Okie Doke’s dope too. Utter genius.
Out now on Cult 45.
