The Streets – Everything is Borrowed (2008)

Here’s the new album from British rapper The Streets.  All I’ve ever checked out from him, to be honest, is his 2004 A Grand Don’t Come for Free, but I liked it quite a bit.  I’ll be giving this a listen, and I hope anyone out there who likes alternative hip hop does the same.

Six years ago The Streets’ Mercury Prize-nominated debut album Original Pirate Material seemed to emerge from nowhere and established Mike Skinner as a witty and original MC-ing proposition – a motor-mouthed phoenix from the ashes of the UK garage scene. His follow up A Grand Don’t Come For Free (2004) – a concept album, a hip-hopera, whatever you wanted to call it – took Skinner to a completely new level of success (three million copies sold, a number one single and album, multiple Brit and Ivor Novello awards). It also gave a totally authentic but superbly artful voice to the real middle England – the middle England not of warm beer and cricket, but of Barratt Homes and Bacardi Breezers. Fast forward to his last album The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living (2006) – perhaps the most action-packed thirty-seven minutes in the history of pop, or rap, or rock and roll come to that – was nothing short of a voyage to the heart of celebrity darkness. Which brings us neatly to 2008 – The Streets fourth album is complete and set for release on September 15th . Everything Is Borrowed is a reminder of why we all fell in love with The Streets in the first place. It’s a charming, thoughtful and incisive album melding the very best components of the first three albums while managing to, as ever, sound refreshingly new. The title track Everything Is Borrowed will be released as a single on September 29th.

    Chinballs, I recommend that you check out Original Pirate Material. Well worth your time if you dug AGDCFF. It is widely considered as Skinner’s best work.

    BTW, why hasn’t TV on the Radio – Dear Science been posted here yet? It’s by far the album of the year for me.

    Actually, The Streets is just Mike Skinner. Chinballs is right. Search ‘The Streets”. Number one site is the ‘once’ official one (now redirects to myspace), which reads ‘Official site for Mike Skinner.’ Like The Game isn’t a group, it’s a person.

    ‘Mike Skinner (born November 27, 1978), more commonly known by his stage name The Streets, is a rapper from Birmingham, England.’

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Streets

    In the beginning, The Mountain Goats was actually just John Darnielle. Bet you didn’t know that, either, wise guy. Go figure.

    The Streets are a group fools, skinner is the mc, I’ve seen them live several times.

    His current live-line up consists out of Kevin Mark Trail on backing vocals, Wayne Vibes on guitar and bass, Chris Brown on keyboards, Magic Mike on samplers and Johnny Drum Machine as drummer and musical director.

    Sounds like one guy to me, but maybe i’m on crack.

    ‘His current live-line up consists…’ Whose lineup? The Streets’ lineup, that’s who!

    Yeah, there is almost no artist on earth, at least with the monetary backing, that tours alone. That doesn’t change the fact that Mike Skinner has always gone, musically, by the moniker of ‘The Streets”. It’s really not an arguable point, as it is fact, from the horse’s mouth, so to speak.

    Biography:
    ‘The Streets, or Mike Skinner to his mum, burst onto the UK music scene in 2002. Described as the voice of his generation, the ground-breaking mix of beats and rhymes of Original Pirate Material, led to a Mercury Music Prize Nomination, and both critical and commercial acclaim.’

    *Jawbreaking yawn*

    The Streets… isn’t anyone except me bored of him yet?

    Original Pirate Material was just that… original. Nuff said.

    Every single album since has sounded forced and chav-tastic for the sake of it. Flogg that novelty “talk but sing, but not quite rapping over shoddy samples” sound for all it’s worth.

    What a load of balls this is.

    lol @ all the losers in here giving chinballs grief when he’s absolutely right. Like I say, losers…

    What is with all this hostility towards all the releasers on here anyway? It’s pathetic.

  31. cant believe i'm joining this dumb argument
    September 10th, 2008 | 23:45

    man you guys who think the streets is a solo group are clueless, from the horses mouth…

    Skinner has always said his group ‘the streets’ will do 5 albums then disband…

    Everything Is Borrowed
    Skinner is currently in the process of mastering his fourth studio album, Everything Is Borrowed

    In a posting on his MySpace blog, Skinner noted that THE GROUPS’S upcoming LP would have a “peaceful, positive vibe” in comparison with 2006’s The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living.

    The Streets used to be a group. I went to school with one of the founding members, but eventually everyone left for various reasons so now skinner is solo… He wouldnt have used the name ‘the streets’ if it was just him but he cant change the name now as he has a 5 album deal under that name, and the studio dont want him to change it.

    Best album since the first in my opinion, if you like it go see him live, he deserves some of your cash for his hard work you thieves ;)

    im just listening to this new cd now…. what the hell did ilike about this guy? He seems like an ametuer who listened to a few rap cds in his room and is trying to rap. I know its his style and i should be appreciating the beats themselves a bit more… but i dont.

    The Streets were a group originally, then the other members of the group disbanded in its early stages but Skinner kept the name.

    Mike Skinner IS the streets now, and he has a band that travels with him on tour, as do most solo artists.

    All of the bickering aside.. Im listening to the album now and I have to say I really like it!! Nice sounds and really good feel to it. Definitely worth a download if you’re thinking about it.

    his best since OPM. stupid religious people should listen to alleged legends.

    “there’s a bloke in the book who made everything, he knows every individual and every trick in them, way above emotion, never getting stressed, but when men choose against he gets jealous”
