Kid Acne
Romance Ain't Dead
The debut album from rapper and graffiti artist Kid Acne is a short, sharp shock to the lug-holes: 11 tracks laced with influences from punk, various eras of hip hop, OI! and old-school British rave with beats programmed by Req and pumped up by Ross Orton (producer of M.I.A.'s hit single, Galang) mastered by acid-house and bass music legend Rob Gordon.
Romance Ain't Dead is the realization of South Yorkshire Tourist Board's worst nightmare and one the funniest, yet slickest albums on Lex.
Singles include remixes from Gescom and Toddla T / Jehst.
