Nonpolitic

First off, it has to be said: the name is kind of...tacky. I mean, it's kind of like the guy who chose the name Ayatollah - there's a certain amount of eye-rolling and, "Bloody hell, not this nonsense again."

Terror MC is from Cape Flats, South Africa; this is all in Afrikaans, so I have no idea what he's saying, but it's the mark of a good MC that he keeps your head nodding even if you have no idea what he's saying.

The underlying track appropriating classic Barrington Levy with a nicely balanced mix of bass, classic drum machine sounds, horns and strings doesn't hurt, too.

Freedom. I'm a fan.
