Label boss Roast Beatz also joins in on the action on remix duties.

Double bass drives the track along as The Kurnel steps up and lays down his rhymes with a more intense feel and flow.
The final track is ‘Diggin’ and this time Hipsta hypes the Funk to the max with Roast Beatz chipping in with additional scratches thanks to expertise on the turntables The Kurnel’s upbeat rhymes this time takes us on a journey of his life, laying out where it began and the hard work it’s taken to get where he is today. Up steps Roast Beatz to complete this superb selection of sounds with a remix that is firmly aimed at the dancefloor.
