The more you listen to these the more you realise how talented Tippa Irie was/is.
Tippa was a genuis Incog and i really cant stress that enough. In fact the whole Saxon set up and the 'Famous Five' Mcs were really something special. Since getting these downloads whats evident is the sheer volume of lyrics these brothers produced particualary Levi and Tippa. They must have been forever writing.

The Unity tape is wicked, pure showcase dance. Theres everything in there to entertain- fast style, double mc lyrics and you can hear the crowd was just ballin out for murder all the while....
