Ugly Duckling

one of my favourite finds of 2011. amazing samples, good beats, humorous lyrics and there isn't a bad song nor album by them. as the reviewer quoted below, the main spearhead is the excellent Young Einstein, who has extremley amazing ear for unearthing odd records from the 60s, some with a lot of Brazilian//Bossa nova feel to them. but also neither Andy C and Dizzy Dustin are bad lyricists either (the song "Andy Vs. Dizzy" highlights this!) For beginners i reccomend Grabbing Taste The Secret and the japanese only "greatest hits" compliation, which features a great remix off "let it out" with Scha Dara Parr. 5/5.

Favorite rap group of all time. Amazing beats and the lyricists are extremely original. Very upbeat and positive, just the stuff you need if you dont want to hear any of that hard stuff. DJ einstein is one producer to look up to, i compare him to dj premier and pete rock of dopeness. I think everysong Ugly Duckling has made is dope. i wish they made more cd's i cant get enough

check out Andy Kooper and Crankcase
