The Streets - A Grand Don't Come for Free

This is an excellent follow up to the Streets first album.

It flows perfectly and tells a story all the way through.


The 2nd video had its premiere tonight on the streets webpage

Yes this is such an amazing CD -- Fit But You Know It was a perfect first single and the story itself is pretty cool.

I really like that song. Do his others have a similar sound to that?

Ehh yeah kinda. Not all of them are as jumpy, though. I'd recommend the following tracks

Has It Come To This (from Original Pirate Material, his first CD)
Let's Push Things Forward (from OPM)
Dry Your Eyes (the new single from this disc)
Weak Become Heroes
It Was Supposed To Be So Easy

Hope you find something there you like -- Mike Skinner is an extremely talented musician, and both his releases are stellar.

I think that A Grand Don't Come For Free is pretty good, but the first tracks is so bad.
