Definitive Jux Music Mike Ladd – Nostalgialator, CD

Through the years, Parisian-based Mike Ladd has fused a combination of genres, from hip hop to poetry to rock to electronic music, to form his own incredible incarnation of afro punk. Whether spitting searing freestyle polemics, rocking punked out jams or teaching at universities, this is an artist who knows very few bounds. Ladd’s music is equally fearless yet sensitive, raw yet sophisticated, just like the man himself. With Nostalgialator (Definitive Jux), co-produced and engineered by Brooklyn’s own Scotty Hard (Wu-Tang Clan, De La Soul, Jungle Brothers, Vernon Reid, Stereo MCs, Einstrzende Neubauten, Lisa Stansfield, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and more), Ladd’s genre-smashing, thought provoking and irreverent musical stylings are on full display.
