Iron Braydz – Golden Legacy
New music from former Blind Alphabetz member Iron Braydz; the Golden Legacy.
Iron Braydz is an MC, lyricist and producer with more skills than tills to count bills.
Representing Harlesden, North West London, Iron Braydz has already collaborated and performed with many of his influences including M1 of Dead Prez, Public Enemy, Saigon, Immortal Technique and RZA of Wu-Tang Clan. On record or on stage he always brings an intensity driven by his immense passion and energy for hip hop which has seen him stand out amongst others in the UK to solidify his presence firmly within UK hip hop and now the US underground scene too after recording Hip Hop bangers with the likes of Guilty Simpson, Sean P, M1 of Dead Prez, Akir, Hasan Salaam, Sav Killz (Braydz and Sav are part of the movement, All Elements founded by DJ J Ronin) and many more with his unique style. “I’m hearing some DOPE home grown talent, cats be SLIPPIN in the states!” is what the legendary DJ Marley Marl said when he first heard Iron Braydz on 279′s Friday night flavours (Choice FM)
This rapper is never afraid to deal with politically controversial content in an intelligent and thought provoking way. Devil May Cry is his first ever solo project, featuring guest appearances from Hip Hop greats and close friends such as M9, Cyrus Malachi, Guilty Simpson, Sav Killz and many more. “Devil May Cry is on some straight gritty sounding Hardcore Hip Hop tip, I’m doing this for me and my A-alike, and who ever is down of course, I love Hip Hop, and this is a demostration of how deep our conversations can get”, says Braydz.
This project also features productions from (hiphop producer Legend) Lewis Parker, Chemo, IronBraydz also know by his producer alias IronChrome and up and comers Morph Beats and Propa.“I am so impressed… so impressed I have to go now and listen to this shit again. This future classic makes me so proud to be British. Iron Braydz, Rago Magazine salutes and congratulates you for doing something good for Hip-Hop music.” 5/5 – Trickster, Rago Magazine
“If Poetic was still alive….and he heard your joint…I’d bet he’d say..ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssssssshiiiiiiiiiit!!” – Gravediggaz
