Richard Brown is Silver Bullet on his debut album. Ten tracks, almost fifty-five minutes, far too many: there's an excess of long tracks — half goes well beyond six minutes, is exaggerated — in which the rapper pulls out braggadocio bars with a hardcore style on skinny and frenetic rhythms. The album says almost nothing, nor do the two singles that pulled him out of London: "Bring Forth the Guillotine" and "20 Seconds to Comply", released for the London electronic music label Tam Tam Records, are commercially successful in the British dance-core scene and the boy has the opportunity to sign an agreement with the Parlophone (EMI side) to release his first LP. There's an ultra-fast delivery on insipidly frenetic and skinny rhythms, musically it's decent, not beyond. After a couple of tours in the USA with Ultramagnetic MC's and Public Enemy his career is over. 5/10.
