Everything Is Borrowed

2008 release from Mike Skinner and his Grime-fighting companions. Six years ago The Streets' Mercury Prize-nominated debut album Original Pirate Material seemed to emerge from nowhere and established Skinner as a witty and original MC-ing proposition - a motor-mouthed phoenix from the ashes of the UK garage scene. The Streets fourth album, Everything Is Borrowed, is a reminder of why we all fell in love with The Streets in the first place. It's a charming, thoughtful and incisive album melding the very best components of the first three albums while managing to, as ever, sound refreshingly new. 11 tracks. 679 Recordings.
