REVIEWS:
Stig Of The Dump “Mood Swings” LP:
www.ilikemusic.com-“it doesn’t pay any lip-service to the sound of the contemporary UK hip hop scene. [....] however, Stig’s combination of a won’t-take-no-shit attitude and an irrefutable lyrical prowess will represent exactly what they want from a truly independent British emcee”
www.beatnikonline.net-“behind all the shouting, boozy attitude and neck-snapping bangers this album illustrates a rare lyrical supremacy”
www.subba-cultcha.com-“Stig of the Dump – Mood Swings is ‘fuck you’ UK rap, proud and arrogant. Its heavy MC foundations steer the album towards a niche market. Fans will love it, Lady Gaga fans probably won’t” 7/10
www.datatransmission.co.uk-“A big frame housing critical breath control and perfect timing over beats that crunch“
Stig Of The Dump: “Homeless Microphonist” EP
www.bbc.co.uk-”Stig Of The Dump proves on this perfectly-formed mini album that there’s more to him than whiplash punchlines and crushing put-downs”
www.britishhiphop.co.uk- “This release is one that will get your tired ears perked up and back listening out for that dope shit which is head and shoulders above the normal average offerings”
www.contactmusic.com-“Make no mistake, The Homeless Microphonist EP is a good debut, the beats are loud & abrasive and the samples are put to great use. Lyrically, Stig is amusing, stark, and all too eager to enlighten everybody with his tales of alcoholism & homelessness”
Stig Of The Dump: Braindead ft R.A The Rugged Man
www.ukhh.com-“The lead single Braindead is a definite club banger, and features production by Beat Butcha, who brings a bouncy, reggae tipped beat, spiked by the combination of tongue-in-cheek word-play from RA and Stig, with a hook guaranteed to get anyone’s head nodding”
INTERVIEWS:
Stig Of The Dump:
Huck Magazine-”The first thing you notice about Stig is just how much presence he has. Not just in a physical sense but in general character, projecting love, hate and a relentless passion with his words“
RWD Magazine-“The name Stig Of The Dump is a name in the UK hip hop scene that has resonated over recent years. Brash and callous with his opinions he probably doesn’t give two squirts of p*** about what you, me or anyone else think”
Knowledge Magazine- “Stig Of The Dump has overcome more than his fair share of problems in the making of his debut album, Mood Swings. But as an MC best known for his battling skills, Stig has learnt to take it all in his stride. We met up with him to find out the full story”
