Savage Journey To The American Dream

Another one for the playlist!

Throw this tape on the iPod or a blank CD ASAP!

Stalley released Savage Journey To The American Dream today. Just like his last tape Lincoln Way Nights (Intelligent Trunk Music), you can expect production that'll make the trunk rattle.

I don't know if it's because of the Maybach Music affiliation or just him coming into his own, but Stalley sounds more confident on SJTTAD. The measured, spoken word flow was replaced with a quicker flow and an edge I haven't heard from him before/

Similar to Lincoln Way Nights, Stalley went with one producer for the majority of the tape. This time Alabama duo Block Beattaz provided the canvas for Stalley.

Add this one to your rotation, you won't be disappointed.

Standout Tracks: Savage Journey, Route 21, Cold, Hell's Angels (American Heathens)

An Introduction

Welcome to my blog. I feel like hip-hop is the most diverse genre of music. Before you click that red "X" in the top right corner and write me off as a backpacker with the straps too tight just hear me out. Over the past 5 or 6 years I've delved deeper into the music. I've looked past the materialism, misogyny, and violence that permeate through many of the lyrics and I have just appreciated the art. I've listened to the beats and the background of these songs to find out how they were composed. Many hip-hop songs contain samples. These samples come from a number of genres (jazz, rock, blues, metal, etc.). Can you tell me any other genre music that pays homage to earlier forms of music like hip-hop does? I've discovered many artists in the aforementioned genres because of hip-hop. Enough of the sentimental stuff. This blog is.......a Product of My Opinion.
