intro
Irreverent and multi-mixed hip hop on latest single from Yo! Majesty member, Shunda K
Signed to Domino as a member of Yo! Majesty, Shunda K has a solo album in early 2011, 'The Most Wanted' on NYC's Fanatic Records. On this single she teams up with Shon B who is also Yo! Majesty. It follows up 'Here I Am to Save the World' and you might think she's an egomaniac. "Duh is the word" she says, but she is only taking the piss. Shunda will annoy the macho punters of hiphop and to lure them in, this 'I'm Da Best' comes in no less than a whopping nine versions on the CD single. The most surprising one is the Lyonnais rap in the version with Les Gourmets, who also featured on Flore's album but there are no dubstep or breaks versions here. There are, however, Some banging clubhouse mixes, best one of the batch is Benson's, followed closely by Generik's. The twelve inch has a clean radio edit, of course! But I doubt that you'll be offended by the uncensored edit> You'll hear nastier wording on BBC television after ten.
