Search - Tali :: Lyric on My Lip

Full Cycle crew member and honorary Bristolian, Tali, is no ordinary MC. The combination of great songs, melodic vocals and rugged flow that she brings to raves translate perfectly onto her Roni Size-produced debut album, Lyric On My Lip. Tali, real name Natalia Scott, has certainly paid her dues. Back in the late 90?s she started attending drum & bass raves in her home country of New Zealand, and caught the bass bug, falling particularly hard for Krust?s bass classic "Maintain". Soon she was mainlining tapes sent over by pals who had left the island for England. "I studied it like I was going for a degree in MC-ing." Then, at a Reprazent gig fortune and confidence collided. Tali plucked up the courage to approach Roni Size and prove her skills. He was so impressed that he took Dynamite off the mic and let the novice Tali blow the minds of her hometown crowd. It was, as they say, the start of a beautiful friendship. Lyric On My Lip is an all-out energy blast from a supremely confident new talent. It?s an individualised sonic boom which connects super-sweet vocals with moments of freestyle MC-ing, and melts crystal-tipped production skills into perfectly pitched songs of escape and love with the allure of a party that never finishes. It?s a good time to be a blinding new MC ? and Tali intends to take her mic all the way to the top.
