Ill Move Sporadic & Big Toast: Interview

Ill Move Sporadic and Big Toast are already well established and respected entities within the UK hip hop scene, thanks to a number of projects that have emerged from both camps over the past few years. Most recently, IMS joined forces with Tenchoo for the incredible Panic Room EP, while Toast has enjoyed success with his Save Yourself Kill Them All collaboration, alongside Sofa King and also thanks to his part in UK supergroup, Gatecrasherz. Now the three of them have joined forces for You Are Not Special, an album which promises to deliver the best of both their worlds in one tidy and maybe slightly disturbing package. The album is due for release in August, so I had a chat with them to see what we can expect from the album and to find out a little bit more about what makes them tick.

IMS & Tenchoo: Making Panic Room 9

Panic Room 9 was one of the strongest releases from last year, securing day time airplay on BBC 6 Music among other things. If you were a fan you might be interested in this mini-doc that just surfaced on the Starch Records YouTube channel, as it gives you a bit of insight into how the record was made. We will be hearing more from both IMS and Tenchoo this year, including a mixtape from the latter called When Planets Collide. More on those as and when.

Ill Move Sporadic & Tenchoo ft. Sleaford Mods: Who’s one the One?

The Ill Move Sporadic and Tenchoo EP is out next week and after the reception Chess Pieces got when they leaked it, they thought they’d get the hype going even more with this gem. Featuring none other than Sleaford Mods’ Jason Williamson, as well the usual brand of ferocious wordplay from Tenchoo, this is one for the masses. Check it out and watch this space for my album review coming soon.

Ill Move Sporadic & Big Toast: Wedding Fund

Big track here from three of my favourite rap types, the dastardly duo that is Ill Move Sporadic and Mr Misanthrope himself, Big Toast from TPS Fam. Wedding Fund is the first leak from Toast’s forthcoming solo EP of the same name.
