On the occasion of the 65th anniversary of D-Day, the
landing of the Western Allies in the Normandy on June 6, 1944, I want to recommend the new album by
Dialect, a proper Hip Hop crew from the British North East (South Shields, Newcastle). Some may remember my
first post on them earlier this year. The new CD is called D.Day - appropriate (not only) for today. Check out the review on
certifiedbanger.blogspot.com and if you like the songs and videos available online get the album through their
site to support the crew with their honest, personal, real Hip Hop. There are several
Dialect myspace pages for the crew and its members like
chattabox. Just check the friends section. Personnally, the tracks
Conflict and
Quicksand blew me mind. They are so intense - you do not need no drugs to feel high! I am from Germany, quite far from South Shields but a friend of mine is a real
Geordie. He introduced me to the music and from his biography and the lyrics I think I can feel quite well how life was and must be like on Tyneside. Hopefully I can check it out meself one day and learn a bit of their dialect
Geordie. If you want to check it out for yaself go to
www.geordie.org.uk for an English to Geordie translator. Whey Aye, Man!
