An angry young musician with a brusque Yorkshire accent launches into an unsettlingly heartfelt tirade at Nathan Barley-type Shoreditch types, set to some fierce beats. And the result's fantastic.
Technically Men started out as a side project of Lo Fidelity Allstars, but Bigman is so good it's tempting to suggest they give up their day jobs and concentrate on socking it to those "three haircut wearing, BMX riding, skinny latte cappuccino buying" residents of Hoxton.
Bile-filled lines like "I've worked a million stages for minimum wages just so a div like you could laid" are classic, but even the instrumental version is worth repeated spins.
