Description
Not enough people know about this band. I liked few hip hop acts and friends who are into hip hop don’t even know most of this stuff. Sad. These guys were really conscious, authentic, and with good samples and original music. It’s a shame the releases are not easy to find!

Formed by Matthew (Matty) David Hanson (b. Wednesbury, West Midlands, England) the band became noted in 1993 after several months of sponsorship by Chumbawamba, with whom they recorded the joint single, “Enough Is Enough”.Hanson wrote lyrics highlighting flaws in the philosophies of gangsta hip-hop, whilst attacking homophobia, sexism and racisim. The follow-up single “Call It What You Want”, cheekily sampled the guitar riff used by Nirvana on “Smells Like Teen Spirit”. This helped find Credit to the Nation an audience outside of the rap market with the student alternative/indie market in the UK. Their subsequent singles “Teenage Sensation” (which broke into the UK Top 30 in March 1994) and “Hear No Bullshit, See No Bullshit, Say No Bullshit” were followed by the release of their debut album “Take Dis.” CttNs career stalled as a second album was delayed by external pressures (including allegations of Hansons drug abuse problems) and following its release Hanson left One Little Indian Records.
