Dear California;
Do you remember how you felt in 1992??
That moment you were ridin’ down Crenshaw or
Sepulveda inhalin’ purple haze, eyes slightly low, Power 106 blaring through
the speakers; and all of a sudden you hear Snoop Dog spew the illest lyrics
alive….
“1 – 2 … 3 and to the
4, Snoop Doggy Dog and Dr. Dre ….”
“Whoooo, the rush you
felt just knowing this is something special. This shit right here son, this
shit right here … is CLASSIC… and this is the music that birthed…."
THE COMMITTEE
Fast forward 13 years later, I am in the office suffering
from a huge case of déjà vu; when friend of the blog, “Chan,” sends me what
just might be the second coming of Snoop and Dre. I hit play and a drunken;
cloud of elusive melodic transformation enters the office followed by the
perfect off beat melody. I honestly can’t say if I am high or if this music has
me in a trance, just when I think it’s the buzz of the purp it happens ….
“BITCH I’M SO ANEMIC!!!! MAN THESE NIGGAS COLD..”
just like
that I am a fan.
Exit cliche’ tidbits of wanna be rappers spewing pointless
proverbial nouns over bullshit beats; enter B.Will and Sean Swift aka “THE COMMITTEE,” hip hops unknown
powerhouse! Their self produced blend of West Coast drenched melodies
coupled with cleverly placed metaphors, witty punch lines, and versatile blends
only enhance my curiosity about the two from Inglewood. B.Will’s charismatic
flow grabs your attention while Sean Swift’s animated flow engulfs you into the
wonderful world of Nappy Genius Entertainment; its hard not to become a fan. This is good music, this is classic hip hop, this is what the game has been missing! Get acquainted.
