Big Cakes' video for "My Soul"

Im not going to beat about the bush, this tune is just different! Big cakes is that artist who tells it as it is, his lyrics are as potent as the album name says. I was especially moved when he said a special shout out to the free thinkers out there. The music business has been plagued by a market that trades in souls and as a result some artists are doing very well and then you have those who chose not to enter the market at all. Its not surprising how the world turns out, its down to the way one thinks and acts since everything has consecuences. I hope more people appreciate this as much as I do and that more people have their minds opened. The whole album is phenomenal to be honest, another tune I have been playing is "Brothers back in Africa" very honest and opionionated. Most of you readers have probably bought the album and can relate to what I am saying in this Blog. To be Frank I have taken too long to do this but here it is. Blue Cheese is out now and has been for sometime now and if you haven't bought it, why not? I mean seriously, there is a lot of truth to be shared in the album and once again I like the album because there is a very real message to heard in the album. Blue Cheese is out now available on iTunes and  Right here Look out for his forth coming album "CCC"

Just Listen- Patience is my only virtue

Most of the music that gets released in this day and age on a global scale normally takes years of hard work and dedication to the craft. Just Listen is no different, in fact when you listen to his album you realise that he is one of those artists that was meant to have appeared on the scene a long time ago but he took his time. and excercised patience. The tracks on this album are not just heartfelt they are observations and opinions based on  the reality we live in and the various choices we make as travel along the journey called life. Music like this is very rare now and should be treasured, most of what we find on the mainstream is either poisonous or pointless . Either way its not as constructive as what I have found in Patience is my only virtue,

The album has taken the best part of a year to record and produce. The production of Sonov Bedrock is evident as the music seems to have a voice of it's own. Just Listen's lyrical ability leaves most people mistified as he has a message with every bar he graces the microphone with. For underground hip hop this album proves to be a formidable force to give even mainstream artists something to worry about. Personally I think the world is just about ready to hear a British MC with such flavour. My favourite tune on the album has to be "My 1st Love" Its a rhyme about the game of basket ball, I feel I can relate to the song because of the  love I have for the game and the places Just Listen mentions since I have played basket ball at some of the venues. This album also ushers in the arrival of "Them Ones" as seen on "guidance/subtance abuse" Like the avengers they are all great at what they do as individuals and just as great when they get together. I will go into further depth when they relaes their album. Another song that really made me feel something has to be "Sarah's song" a song about his love that he lost, very emotional to say the very least. The best way for you to understand what kind of sentiment I experienced is to listen to the song yourself. Just Listen gives us an insight into how he used to create his music in "Drink smoke write spit" and once again he goes in!! Other songs on the album are too good for words I mean I couild try and describe what I hear and how I feel about the music I heard on the album but I fear that I may not be accurate since everyone has their own oppinion. I showed "darker planet" to a friend via facebook and she loved it, I wouldn't be surprised if it is now on her play list for when she is working out in the gym because of the production and the tempo Just Listen is working with. This album is definitley a must if you love your hip hop and you appreciate music with a real message. patience is my only virtue is available on  Here
