14 minutes and counting...



Configa, is a producer/composer & rapper of international renown. A founder member of the Slept On Fam, who's album 'Audio Crack' is still available, Configa is probably much better known in New York & London than he is in his native Newcastle.


If you're familiar with this blog and/or my radio show you will have read/heard his name on several occasions by now (in the track listings at the end of each blog). I think it's fair to say that I'm a fan of his production/compositional work, whether it's him spitting or the likes of F.Dot (a.k.a. Floriginul), Scorzayzee, etc.


His latest release, 15 Minutes, is a departure from the 'boom bap' he's better known for and even includes a tasty contribution from singer Atlanta Smith. However, it's no less Hip Hop than his previous offerings and Scorzayzee's lyrics are on point as usual.

There's talk of a new album in the ether and I will happily give you the heads up as soon as I have more information on that. In the meantime, keep up with his moves and news by following his Twitter page.
