Millennium Metaphors is the first album by the Luton-based hip hop group Phi Life Cypher. Notable for its highly political lyrics, Tim Perry in The Independent wrote that the album got across the current angst and disillusionment with Blair’s Britain like no others and that it was the absolute flipside of the Lexus-and-diamonds rappers. Millennium Metaphors Q&A.
Phi Life Cypher was a British hip hop group based in Luton, composed of two MCs, Si Phili and Life MC, and DJ Nappa. The trio started making music together around 1996, and since have had much success on the UK underground circuit. Phi-Life Cypher made it to the final of Tim Westwood's Talent 2000 competition and ripping the mic on DJ Skitz's seminal posse cut 'Fingerprints of the Gods' projected them to the upper realms of the UK Hip Hop scene.
