  • When London Street Art legend, Remi Rough & Paris based, Boston bred Art Rap creator, Experimental Hip Hop innovator, Mike Ladd combine their cutting edge lyricism and captivating visual art, what ensues is The Dead Can Rap's new art-book.

    Bizarrely honest, unpredictable, unique and often unorthodox styles meet in a dialogue between two pillars of the international Hip Hop Community, and their comrades in Underground Hip Hop resistance theology.

    Not only will this artbook serve as intellectual & visual vitamins, but it also fits in your pocket, just like all those Rapper's rap books before the rise of iPhone raps emerged.

lyrics

Bakelite
Back in track you bitches...
You plastic asshole
Dead hectic from the bedroom to the car crash
In the kitchen hittin where I got the whiplash
Better than the tongue lash tug it til it goes flash
Love it while you got it cos you never know if love lasts
From country to country to city to city
To money to pity to cuttin witty to witty
Livin til you done shitty when she up in your business
Like you was ready and willin but she painted you as a villain
They vacated the building and caught you holding like Dylan
No return the appeal and now you looking at the ceiling
And the sentence is ill and you up in it still
It ain’t the way inhaling plastic cake
To take the pain away
So bakelite, I’m bakelite
So Bakelite, I’m bakelite
So fucking bakelite
Get it get get it get it get it get it get it
Get it get it
Get it get it
Get it
C’mon
Oh wow! I’m feeling fucking fantastic
Surrounded by my enemies and shit tons of plastic
It’s drastic and I’m about to go spastic
Crazy envelope I’m hoping everyone’s elastic
Nah, you just couldn’t imagine
The periodic table of diligent rapping
My right to fight
I’m bakelite
The purple antagonistic aconite
So bakelite, I’m bakelite
So Bakelite, I’m bakelite
So fucking bakelite
