Sign of Greatness:The Tale of Barack Scobama

Young Scolla of USR brings the heat on his latest mixtape. This is NOT another Hood Tracks Anthem as so many Detroit Artists put out on mixtapes. Young Scolla has put thought and effort into each one of his songs. The difference between this mixtape and other artists I have heard is the depth and variety. Original beats, guest appearances and quality vocals make it seem more like an album; a finished product rather than an attempt to hustle by making a couple tracks in someone's basement. The project has more ups than downs. Tracks including, Dont You Know; Like Me and Dreams to Reality are radio ready hits and Infatuation ft.K-Bunz is byfar my favorite thanks to a familiar sample. Scolla braves the waters of singing WITHOUT Autotune. That alone deserves its own praise, but this isnt about my vendetta against the machine. Bottom line is this is a good album and I like it. The track by track rundown puts this piece of work above average. Job Well Done Sir Scolla.

21:03 is NICE

Yo I was recently turned onto the gospel music tip. A lot of people sleep on the gospel artists because they feel that song and praise dont mesh. Or they feel it isn't interesting. Well I challenge you to listen to the group 21:03 and see if your mind isn't changed. Things were rough at first. Handpicked by production supergroup PAJAM from hundreds of candidates during a casting call in their native Detroit, then-hopefuls Evin Martin, Torrence Greene, and Jor’el Quinn were three strangers chosen on the basis of their faith, as well as their singing and dancing abilities. I attended High School with one of the members of this group and I can assure you these guys are the real deal. They truly live and preach the Word they believe in. and I believe they have the tools for success. Give them a listen and hit me back on the blog to tell me what you think.
