Ewun's Wun Nation Interview + Mix

Ewun's got his first EP, entitled ''Wun Nation'', set to be released on Evol Intent. We got a chance to both sit down with him, as well as preview the EP in its entirety, and we were amazed with how explosive this release is: the party gets started with ''Phone Tap'', a tune that's been absolute damage on plate. Ewun finds a distinctive way to incorporate the sounds a phone makes into a bonafide stormer for the floors. ''Cop Killa'' keeps the bullet train moving, playing as almost a homage to the anti-cop Hip-Hop tracks from a decade plus ago. Very aggressive, almost the sounds of a revolution taken straight to the pigs in the street. Ewun joins forces with Mental Sharp to remix an early Evol Intent track, ''Take That'', and do it justice by keeping the same intensity, but taking it up a few notches with a bevy of new school lyrical ammunition from the Philly MCs. This is the call to arms, and perfectly takes the hybrid Hip-Hop/DnB sound to the next level. Expect plenty of rewinds on that one. Rounding out the EP is the nasty number ''My Name Is Fame'', which ties everything you love about Ewun into a bouncy, in-your-face calling card. I dare you to try and get that sample out of your head.
