Well all that know me realize how integral music is to my life....I want to hip yall to some of the artists that are really making an impact on my life soundtrack right now.
Raheem Devaughn- "The Love Experience"
The album has not dropped yet, but I have some cuts from it and it is hot! It is so refreshing to find a singer that is pure artistry. He is the lead singer for the group Urban Ave 31, Washington DC/Baltimore area band. They are wonderful. They have two independantly produced albums entitled "The Healing" and "The Antidote". You can purchase the cds off of the link below. www.urbanave31.com
Cody ChestnuTT- "The Headphone Masterpiece"
This cat was out around the time of R. Kelly and Public Annoucment but he never blew up. So he cahnged his sound, and has come back with an eccletic mix of 36 tracks on this CD. You just have to hear it. He runs the gammet (sp?) from singing about love to saying "Thank you Jesus, for my mama and thank you bit**es for my money". You just have to hear this one for yourself. * He is the cat from the Roots song "The Seed".
Roy Hargrove- "Hard Groove"
This is a wonderful blend of jazz and hip-hop. Cd highlights is Erykah Badu and Q-Tip Joint "Poetry" and Dangelo's "I'll Stay".
Peven Everett- "Studio Confessions"
I picked this joint up in the Virgin Music store in New York. I love it.
Bebel Gilberto- "Tanto Tempo"
Bossa Nova singer. This cd came out I think two years ago. It is fab! Check it out.
