Klashnekoff: Back to the Sagas

The formidable east London rapper vents frustration at the world on his third album, says Killian Fox
  
  


Darren Kandler is a respected east London rapper whose nom de guerre, Klashnekoff, forewarns of the militaristic view of life outlined in his tightly regimented rhymes. His third album is sober and hard-hitting, like a disgruntled drill-sergeant. He takes shots at government corruption and celebrity culture but most of his frustration is reserved for the music business and its pitfalls. Don't expect an easy listen – even the love song "Forever More" has the clipped air of an army debrief. The payoff here is Kandler's formidable rapping talent.
