Visioneers Dirty Old Hip Hop
- Words: Sabrina Ford
- Label: BBE
- XLR8R Rating: /10
On Dirty Old Hip Hop, Marc Mac, one half of 4 Hero, presents himself in his Visioneers studio guise. Comprised of seamlessly blended hip-hop and jazzsounds, Dirty Old Hip Hop bridges the gap between generations. Warning: Your parents might dig this one as much as you do. This is a multi-function album that can lull you to sleep or provide the soundtrack for a night out. Every track is enjoyable but the standout is the Visioneers' version of The Pharcyde classic "Runnin," an uptempo string- and drum-heavy track with a smoothed out vocal that beautifully reminds that you "Can't keep runnin' awaayyaayyaa."
