I’m teaching rap at a hiphop school for two weeks, and I gave the students an assignment that I did myself as well. We all chose a song to make a new version of, using some of the ideas from the original song – but adding our own flavor to it. My choice was Tenor Saw’s ‘Golden Hen’ – and my version is called ‘Män som Hatar Kvinnor’. Download it here!

Recorded by Kapten Röd at his studio – big up!

Bureaucrazy is a song I did with Cosmic and Tenor Diamond back in 2005, and by popular demand you can download it here. If you’d rather by it on vinyl 7″,you can do that here.

I’ve seen from the guestbook that you’ve been waiting impatiently for this month’s Promoe song. Well, here it is! It’s called ‘Blind’, it’s produced by Astma and it features none other than Million Styles. The artwork is once again by Time Will Tell. Upliftment! Spread it to the world!

Lyrics

It’s a new year, it’s a new beginning, it’s a new song called ‘New Day’.

Thanks to all the people we have worked with and met throughout 2008 – I hope to see I see you all again next year.

The plan for 2009 is, loosely, as follows: I will release my first solo album in Swedish this spring, and Embee will also be releasing solo material during that same period (rumors claim that he has two albums in the works (!) – one of them being the follow up to ‘Tellings From Solitaria’). During the summer Looptroop will start recording our new album, and release for that would realistically be early 2010. This means that Looptroop will not be touring in 09, except for some new areas (we have discussions with some people about tours in the US and in France for example – but more about that if it gets confirmed). I plan a solo tour in Sweden with my album though.

I know I said earlier that I would release an album in English on the net around this time, but I need to focus on the Swedish album. So a plan I have is to, somehow (I haven’t figured it out yet), release one song every month and then put it together as one album when all of them have been released. Whatever may happen to that plan, here’s at least the first of those songs: ‘New Day’. Spread the love!
