Yo! Majesty @ Cabaret Voltaire, 27 Mar

Yo! Majesty bring their sexualised rap party to Edinburgh's Cabaret Voltaire.

Article by Jamie Scott | 03 Mar 2009

Yo! Majesty are Florida's riposte to Spank Rock, a female rap group with enough party attitude and pose to rival Baltimore's lewdest. Rappers Shunda K and Jwl B make like the Beastie Boys, brushing aside the labels (this time, lesbian and religious) that bloggers and journalists never fail to bestow upon them, and simply get on with enjoying themselves. Last year's Futuristically Speaking… Never Be Afraid scored mildly positive reviews, but it is in the live environment that the group come to life. Wild fluorescent hip-hop, plenty of chauvinistic posturing and the near certainty of nakedness - this is more than you could imagine in your dirtiest of dreams. [Jamie Scott]
