Default Looking for some music recommendations

Hi folks,

Could anyone give me some advice? I'm looking for some artists or songs that would have similar sound to 'Freaks' from Whodini's 1991 album Bag a Trix (seems I can't post a link because I'm new, but you can hear it on Youtube on the WhodiniVEVO channel).

I really enjoy the upbeat tempo and combination of old school hip hop with swing in this track, particularly the trumpets and the singing in the chorus (Bag A Trix might have been my top 5 cassettes just because of that track).

If anyone could recommend some artists that went for a similar sound in their songs, I'd really appreciate it

If you're into non-mainstream hip-hop with a small flavour- mix of other genres too (rock, funk...) then Wrekonize & the whole Mayday crew from StrangeMusic are a much-check-out...

As an Aussie, I'd love to throw Koi Child into the mix. Awesome, instrumental hip-hop with lively sounds. They recently got a big co-sign through Tame Impala front-man Kevin Parker jumping on as their Executive Producer. Let me know your thoughts.

I'd link it, but I can't.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

You looking for more Grime?

Just ask our resident Grime expert, MLM.

I know a few you should check for also.

Wiley, Kano, Skepta specifically the album he released this year(Konnichiwa).

Ghetts but he's like not for everyone. If you are into his slow flow then you'll love most of his stuff.

oh and Konan, I just learned about him myself.
He's more just UK Hip Hop I believe and not as much a Grime artist.

I meant more international hip hop in general but this is awesome too! Thanks, I'll have to get around to some of these.
