Blak Twang

Dettwork Southeast


"Sony Music have announced the release of the legendary “lost” debut Blak Twang album Dettwork SouthEast. An un-released British masterpiece that has reached almost mythical status, and undoubtedly the holy grail of UK hip-hop, the album has been re-mastered and includes a brand new 2014 bonus track, ‘Dettwork London Revisited (Dettwork SouthEast Remix)’. The revisited version now features Jehst, Rodney P and Samson AKA Black The Ripper.

Considered an all-time classic of the genre, Dettwork SouthEast (a pun on the rail company Network SouthEast) was ranked at No.3 in the Hip-Hop Connection list of the Top 50 UK hip-hop LPs, even though it never got past an initial small promotional-only (not For Sale) run on cassette for journalists in advance of what should have been its official release in 1996. For what later became an album of scarce availability amongst music aficionados, its influence upon the UK hip-hop scene is undoubted. Both singles from the album, ‘Real Estate’ and the title track ‘Dettwork SouthEast’, gained widespread recognition upon release, which served to only further fuel the cult-like status the album is now known for; an absolute lost gem of an album.
