And now for something completely different.

It has been described as Steampunk Rap.

I describe it as Nigella Lawson meets Dr. Frankenstein. Whatever it is it is a laugh.

The accent defeated me. But his stuff looks interesting.

I can understand it, but maybe due to living in UK for near a decade. It is packed with innuendo. Very steampunk/burlesque. Hope I get to see in concert.

One of the funniest things about Professor Elemental is that he is engaged in a bitter feud with Mr B The Gentleman Rhymer. Because, rather amazingly, there are TWO PG Wodehouse-style rappers in the UK.

But what's perhaps of even more interest to mudcatters is Tom Bombadeal (on TeaSea Records), who is a self-conscious 'folk' rapper. In practice, this means it's fairly straightforward hip-hop, it just happens that he samples folk fiddling etc.
