There is a lot of traveling on the Zwolle-Rotterdam route. The Dutch hop network, with the Duvelduvel-Kubus-Opgezwolle connection at its core, has already made a big impression with various releases, and will be reinforced with Ut Zwarte Aap, the debut CD of Jawat !. And it is not for nothing that he has that exclamation mark after his name, because 'head hunter and rioter' Yeah! is a rapper who
… overflows with energy and makes an almost hyperactive impression. On Ut Zwarte Aap, for which producers Duvel, Dion, Delic and Kubus provided the beats, Jawat! often madly mad, and mostly 'fake rappers' have to pay for it, but he does not avoid more personal subjects either. Living according to your dreams and ideals is for Jawat! more important than an expensive car or a big house, and if that means little status, he takes it for granted. Yes what!' his fierceness and elaborate delivery make an impression, and the often futuristic productions support him perfectly. Zwarte Koffie together with Opgezwolle is a real hit, and Kubus seems to be heading more towards house in tracks like Battery and Clear. Ut Zwarte Aap is yet another proof that hip-hop has reached a high level in the Netherlands. (IV)more
