Shots At The Dragon - Self Titled EP
Hip Hop Duo Kanwar Crosse & Sam Hall
Hailing from a sleepy town in Kent, Shots At The Dragon’s motley düo met in the early noughties with a soundtrack of already classic 90’s hip hop beats scoring their time together.
Inspired by decades of stateside funk and drawls, as well as the ancient backdrop of their hometown, the two have set out on a musical quest to stand alongside their idols in the Pantheon of Hip Hop.
Their first, self-titled, EP is an aurally epic chronicle of their journey and provides an eclectic array of beats that pay respect to the works of the old guard but not without allowing ‘SATD’ to firmly establish their own unique sound.
