True Tiger - Slang Like This



After the success of the Magnetic Man Project major labels have turned thier gaze to Dubstep in a big way. Like Suaron's sweeping eye across the watelands of Mordor, Virgin Records last month announced the signing of Dubstep outfit True Tiger. Consisting of Sukh Knight, Stanza, Scandulous Untld, Stenchman, P-Money and a host of others, True Tiger are a formidable group to say the least. However one cant help thinking that this partnership with Virgin won't end profitably.  Hardly as marketable as the super-group hype of Skream, Benga and Artwork, True Tiger will have to think carefully about what their first LP should contain and understand that the curent frenzy for the dubstep sound is likely to be highly fleeting.

Saying that, "Slang like this" was a certified banger all summer (especially at Outlook Festival). Sukh Knight is on the buttons, exhibiting his grimey, low end dancefloor sound and it perfectly showcases P-Money's scatter gun style. The video features many familiar faces hold tight DJ Cable!  He even manages to get a few seconds of scratching in at the end, something that has never featured in the repertiore of your average Dubstep DJ. Check it out!
