The Bug has released a blistering vocal version of “Drop (Machine Sex)”, now renamed “Deep in a Mud” and featuring Nigerian-British MC Magugu. “People have been saying to me for a couple of years, I should check/collaborate with Magugu. In fact one of the MCs I work with, called Miss Red, sent me a link about a year ago, and said she thought I would dig his style,” Martin explained. “I understand why, as to my ears, on his fiercest cuts he sounds like a Nigerian brother of Flowdan. Basically an Afro baritone badman! So when I recently heard Mala drop a new killer by him, I decided to reach out.... Luckily he was well aware of my music and into it, and so we clicked and worked fast. I liked the idea of perversely dropping a new version of the 'Drop (Sex Machine)' instrumental from the Machine album, with added vocals. And so Magugu killed it with 'Deep in a Mud'. Also, I thought it would be sweet to offer it as a 'name your price' Bandcamp gift to those who have been following me consistently through my various Bug mutations.” - THE BUG Order 'Machine' & 'Machines I-V' Here: Digital Downloads/Streaming: Subscribe to Relapse Records Channel: OFFICIAL LINKS: #TheBug #Machine #Dub #Electronic #RelapseRecords Lyrics: Deep in the mud Dey raise me Deep in the mud I’m raised 10 toes on the concrete No shoes I no tie no lace Omo we come from trenches We they go grass to grace Training on a Mountain na me Dey control the pace I move Run tings oga sir Dey make moves Yesoo many years I paid dues Rebellious omo we break rules Stay true From the dirt but my heart Dey clean I dey kind but my dark side mean Dey no know wetin man done see no peace when I switch I Dey come full steam Hook Deep in a mud Deep deep deep in a mud Deep in a mud Deep deep deep in a mud Deep in a mud I’m raised do my ting on my terms my ways Kpoto kpoto Kpoto kpoto kpoto ( means mud in pidgin) Ajegunle soldier From day Dey know say my ting concrete Keep myself to myself no talk too much I Dey move discreet I Dey believe in me I no follow dem boy there compete Na me be king When I enter bow to the oba kiss the ring Agbero mana show no fear Show dem say na me run tings here If you see me Dey fight for jungle Omo guy help the grizzly bear No weave on we no fake round hair See my bone face bad man stare Shoko yeah e Dey blow for air On my sleeve na my heart I wear
