Mixing art with activism, they weld protest rap to breakbeats and ambient dub. \"I grab the mic\", chants their diminutive MC Master D in rapid-fire ragga style, \"To...\/ Supply rhymes, man \/ You never thought an Asian could do this.\" More dance-orientated than the distorted guitar and punk attitude of their follow-up, 1998's\nRafi's Revenge, this album includes the declarative \"Rebel Warrior\" (about Bangladesh's national poet Kobi Nazrul Islam); the gentle percussive tabla groove of \"Journey\", and \"Thacid\", an experimental piece of dub techno. Lacing their hardcore rap with sardonic use of nursery rhyme and popular song, along with deep bass beats and swathes of sampled Hindi film music, ADF here made a compelling debut.\n--Lucy O'Brien\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 5018560005828\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42523246657795,"sku":"W1-8H5Z-1MEZ","price":9.59,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/51RXMHiG-WL.jpg?v=1646020187","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/products\/facts-fictions","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
