"A consistent album with dark guitars and strings over hard dusty drums blessed with sinister story telling and battle rhymes from Smokey."
by pfoundmusic

" Words From the Missing is a quality debut that will hopefully acquire a bit of exposure on this side of the ocean."
by Exclaim

"Words... flicks smouldering underclass storytelling ash across those canvasses and trumps plenty of established emcees in the process "
by Adam Anonymous (HHC)

Press Release for WFTM

Following the release of his debut solo single - Road Zombies, Smokey is now dropping a double, 10 track deep, EP - Words from the Missing. Production on the EP is courtesy of East London based duo, Bare Smoke ...half Smokey & half Bare Beats. Bare Smokes unique blend of banging drums, cut-up samples, live instruments and killer bass lines will make your gut spasm. Their unique beatsmithing breaks away from the run of the mill hip-hop sound and brings some fresh sounding, dark ish that will leave your ears exhausted.

Flipping the scripts with street rhymes, stories and life entrapments, Smokey blesses the tracks with pure aggression, his passion for hip-hop and his dedication to the streets of the city that have educated him. Smokey stays true to those raw elements that made Hip-Hop a culture and a lifestyle long before it became adopted & diluted all over the world.

2006 has seen Smokey working hard in the Studio and doing live shows drumming with various Jazz bands throughout the South East. Ever eclectic, next year will see the release of his debut Drum 'N' Bass album as well as a full Bare smoke album, a Smokey mix CD and a whole host of other releases.
