Biography
The mastermind behind this explosion of dysfunctional rhyme armament? It was long-time Herbaliser collaborator Jean Grae who decided to bust out a group of frontline MC soldiers from right across the USA and bring them together to cause mayhem. Brooklyn, Boston, Atlanta, Harlem and the Bronx ? never before has such a team of misfits been featured together on one record? "They are Trap Clappa, Cheech Marina, Daddy Mills, A.K., MacGuyver, and of course Jean Grae" The Herbaliser, revelling in their production role, captured the essence of this madness and set it to music. Horn fanfares, machine gun drum fills, strings played on razor wire. This isn?t so much the A Team as the ARGH! Team. Loving that their plan had come together Messrs Wherry and Teeba served ?The Generals? up as the first course from an album that promises to bite back??Take London!? It?s an album that shows that the Herbaliser have lost none of their appetite for the fray, or for the constant self-improvement which has made them one of the UK?s most consistent hip hop production teams of the last decade. Watch out for the ground- breaking video coming soon from Chris Ratcliffe and the imminent announcement of tour dates. In the meantime, get yourself a helmet, and stay down, soldier?
