Trust me we couldn’t stuff enough hard spittas in this one for ya, including the revelation of No. 1 from the UK no less! BOOMSHAKALAKA!

108. Juga-Naut x Giallo Point – The Passion

要數英國嘅“大粒嘢”,一定要數Juga-Naut 同 Giallo!”The Passion”正正係講緊佢地對音樂致敬嘅態度同對專業嘅擔當。Juga-Naut 同 Giallo 靠佢地嘅合作專輯 “Back To The Grill Again” 入面一首中毒性極強嘅旋律,成功成為今次榜單嘅第一位,亦係最適合狂loop嘅一首!

Bumblebee Wally clarks, the UK connect drippin’ all up in this bxtch! Speakin on the dedication of the craft and it’s required commitment, “The Passion”. Juga-Naut and Giallo Point take the top spot on our AUG 2019 Top10EN with a melodic groove from their collaborative album, “Back To The Grill Again” rockin’ a slick KRS-ONE loop!

107. Flee Lord x 38 Spesh f/ Termanology – Not For Fashion

邪惡嘅創作- “Not For Fashion”係3個MC 聯手,製作出黎最原始同粗糙嘅版本!令我驚喜嘅仲有呢段副歌,絕對係對手嘅一大威脅!

A nasty nasty cut. “Not For Fashion” sees the 3 Mc’s link up to give you that street shxt raw and uncut! Love me the flavor of this hook too. This is one mean menace!

106. Jaykin f/ Jay Worthy – Monte Carlo (prod. by U-Tern)

溫哥華MC, Jaykin同Jay Worthy拍檔,將paper chase變成史記,呢個最強合體將one-two verse玩到出神入化,根本無得輸!

Vancouver MC, Jaykin links with Jay Worthy to add to the chronicles of the paper chase. This fly ass joint got the collabo rippin’ a fly one-two verse combo for the win!

105. Benny The Butcher f/ India – 5 To 50

Benny The Butcher一直都係我地榜上的常客。知唔知道佢啱啱簽咗Roc Nation?Gat Damn. 佢EP”The Plugs I Met”入面feature India嘅作品-“The Plugs I Met”,係一段令你聽完絕對會上腦嘅逼真旁白!呢首由Alchemist製作嘅催眠曲,慢慢燃燒起各位Bentley riders嘅熱誠!

90後設計師 YMDH李居錡猛烈踫撞的本土文化. HONG KONG DESIGNER BRAND, YMDH, MIXES CHINESE AND WESTERN INFLUENCES FOR THAT STREETWEAR DRIP


採訪/Interview and writing : Lorien Chan
攝影/Photos : Nick D @precursorprints 

深入認識YMDH / Know more about YMDH here :  @ymdhstudio 

We first met Jason at his graduation show for the THEi institute in 2016. I recall on his face a deep disappointment and sadness. What were the emotions running through him at that time? Did something happen backstage? This image of him and his show music will be forever etched in my memory. After the Hong Kong YDC competition that year, Jason started his own label, YMDH. He seemed be well on his way to success with a cross-over shoe and bag collection with Hong Kong retailer I.T. called “I Go To School By Bus”. This project gave him a lot of exposure, and people in the fashion industry, and media took notice of this new fashion designer in Hong Kong. Due to the small nature of the fashion circle in Hong Kong we are fortunate to run into Jason from time to time, always with the intention of doing a formal interview. With an opportunity of a YMDH collective show, it was finally the right time!

第一次見李居錡(Jason Lee)是在Thei的畢業時裝表演舞台上,每個設計師雖然緊張但面上都藏不住內心的興奮。綵排時唯獨Jason一個人滿面愁容,我不知道那是他天然的「壓世樣」還是有什麼事在後台發生了,但這個奇怪的表情加上他選用的音樂讓我忘不了這個設計師。那次之後我一直想跟他做個訪問,解開我心中的迷團。YDC之後他在2018年成立了自家品牌YMDH,並與ITHK合作推出了一個聯乘鞋袋配飾的系列叫 “ I Go To School By Bus ”。這個合作讓他得到了不少的曝光率,令到時裝業界和傳媒認識到這個新晉時裝設計師。相隔幾年之後,這個訪問終於做到了。
