Goldie Lookin' Chain @ HMV
By Holden DeForgeOn a whistlestop tour of HMV's around the country to promote current single 'Your Missus Is A Nutter' the GLC have the security guards twitching as Eggsy commands "everyone steal something from the shelves... NOW!!!!". It's easy to write off Goldie Lookin' Chain as a novelty act and there's no denying a large part of their appeal is in their comedy value, but since when was it bad to have lyrics that make you smile?
We get the new single of course which is swiftly followed by 'Bad Boy Limp', an ode to those Claims Direct adverts, which is dedicated to Ricky Wilson. "Forget about the bones you're breaking, think of all the cash you're making!" After 'Charm School' comes 'Guns Don't Kill People (Rappers Do)' which proves that the GLC cut it musically, it's not become tired despite heavy airplay and it's a kickass tune. Closing with another new tune 'Hit Song' (... "this is just another shit song that you heard on your radio") the GLC have certainly boosted sales of their forthcoming album and proved they will be strong enough to ride out any criticism.
