TTC | Batards Sensibles | NYC Show
"What’s the best way to describe the new album from Parisian future rappers TTC? Like the Sex Pistols jamming with Daft Punk in French? The soundtrack to the victory of machines over humans as directed by Luc Besson? The funniest, thuggiest outpouring of nerd posturing in the history of hip hop, ever (and still in French)? Or maybe as all of these things (in French)." [Big Dada Press Release]
Listen to clips @ Big Dada
* Pitchfork gave it an 8.0
* Stylus gave it a B
* Currently the #7 album of the year @ Cokemachineglow
..."the next act was TTC, a French hip-hop act who were excellent. They mixed up hip-hop, breakbeat and some dancehall sounds. One of the (three) rappers was the funniest frontman I've seen in ages - a really sweaty fat white guy in a tattered pink T-shirt who was going fucking nuts onstage." [Random Musings]
"Showtime! Just when it seemed impossible to stuff another crazily fun live show into the month of September, we got out the shoehorn and jammed TTC into the Knitting Factory for Thursday the 29th. Thats close to two weeks away - more than enough time to brush up on your reading, pick up copies of Batards Sensibles and Cuizinier's Pour Les Filles mixtape, and see just why we're so excited for these dudes to finally hit up NYC again." [FADER]
