Bleep

Proving that you don’t need to be a Doors fan to make an authentic ‘Nam album, Marc Mac weaves ‘60s protest samples around an array of colourful hip-hop beats. ‘Afro Pride Soldier’ saunters and squeaks while explaining how black conscripts were forced to shave down their ‘fros; ‘Clean Home’ loops a sax line into a snare-driven soul melody. A funky but fresh look at a still-sore point in US history.
