A free mixtape, mixed by Rich Reason for Riz MC, in support of the film Shifty, which is out on Friday. I've been banging on about this film since December when I saw it at the London Film Festival for two reasons 1) it's a fantastic British film 2) my mate Riz is in it and is bloody good in it too.
Anyone that knows anything about British film and/or music will have been aware of Riz and the serious moves he's been making over the last couple of years - Shifty should make him known to a much wider audience. Got to say maximum respect for Riz's tight promo game, recording an exclusive track with Plan B and Sway, and then this mixtape just before the film's release. Wannabes? Watch and learn.
Anyway enough of my ramblings, here's the link and tracklisting (loving the variety)
