Oh no, he's back - dissin', debating his relevance and generally lowering the tone.
Go HERE, put your name in and you're through to the back-end of GABBA. Then you can download it from the central column. I'm not sure he's eligible for AMP status after the incident at the Seed Records party...

A Pitman 'clean edit', now I've heard it all.

"Witness The Pitness" was edited for radio as well, though

Pitman - It Takes Tea
Preston's finest rapping coal miner surfaces again with the third instalment of these ultra-rare ultra-comical bootlegs. Over the old It Takes Two break, he delivers more hilarious swipes at the hiphop beginners club and gives props to the merits of a good strong cup of tea. Meanwhile down on the Twat Farm "there's an old Housemartin trying to mix" and people who think "breakdancing started with Jason Nevins videos". Proper chips indeed.

Label:Unknown Format:7" Price: £4.60

Does anyone reckon if this was probably released and played on daytime radio 1, it would be a top 20 hit?

Pitman is a comic genius with words.

he's a midlander not a northerner. it's an important difference.

damn, i would love a copy of this record. but i don't have a credit card and i'm generally sketchy about ordering things from overseas. i wonder if some kind distributor in canada will take up pitman's cause.

one month passes...

anyone heard 'big daddy' yet? I just got it from Soulseek. Seems to be the bonus track from 'The Showstopper', anyone got any more info on this? It's only a minute long but well funnier than 'it takes tea'

does pitman even matter anymore?

i seem to have lost a bit of interest - not heard of 'The Showstopper' thing yet either, i'm sure he's still doin good work tho, i'll get round to hearing them eventually
