Wisdom is the key to survival. While information and formation have its place, we stand on the inherited knowledge of the philosophers. And we often find them in interesting and surprising places, rather than on the mountain top. So, we are retiring our hiking gear to lift a cup to producer Damone Harvey. Then, documenting and living according to the words of these well selected lyricists and vocalists.
Warning, this process takes time and reflection. And to fault, we almost overlooked the brilliance of this album. The conditioned shortcoming of being fooled by randomness. And with the proliferation of riddim albums and limited branding, as listeners we falsely perceive them as similar. Lesson learned; this album is set apart from the rest. Iba Mahr’s vocals and lyrics on “A Million Thoughts,” is remarkable. Equally, every artist is solid in their delivery. And true to life, wisdom is prismatic, so we appreciate the range of perceptions.
However, the ingenuity of this production is the baseline rhythm. Truth seekers as Damone Harvey often educate through movements. Indicative is the musical composition. A settled vibe of guitars at the intro excels to a mimetic form of a heartbeat with vibrant drums and a pulsating bass. Yes, respect to life.
