Reviewed by Tony Cummings
Another hugely witty and refreshing EP from the nerdcore rap man from Indiana. The title track is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the 1994 family holiday film while "The Lament Of Kevin McCallister" is a clever story song about the fictional character played so memorably by Macaulay Culkin in the first two Home Alone movies. Ben's other Christmas song here, "Christmas In Whoville", portrays, of course, the fictional town created by Dr Seuss where the Grinch causes trouble for its citizens. Yep, Ben is his own man when it comes to choosing themes for his pretty impressive flows while the production is as tight and inventive as ever.
