1,5 years ago this group was introduced to me when I read about their cd "How I got over" in a little booklet from a local music shop. I decided I would give their cd a try and I was surprised in a positive way. Like when you're surprised to receive a postcard you didn't expect, when you eat something and taste something that's just delicious. That kind of surprise it was.
And for the last 1.5 year this cd was one that I kept on listening too. Especially during evenings, too relax, too chill with, together with friends or girls.
But in August this year their came another surprise, I saw this band live at a music festival in the Netherlands. And it was a great performance. This group gave a show away that was absolutely fabulous, better than you would expect from a hiphop band. Jamming, slamming, they knew how to turn the Alpha tent upside down, and they did.
And when I didn't expected it, there came another surprise this January when I read about their new album "Undun". It's their thirteenth studio album and they're still going strong. A solid album with good music combined with strong texts (about the life of gangster Redford).
Today's single is my favorite from the album and I have to be honest with you, although it sounds really good, this time it's about the text, which moves me..
"And no one’s in the lighthouse
You’re face down in the ocean
And no one’s in the lighthouse
And it seems like you just screamed
It’s no one there to hear the sound
And it may feel like there’s no one there
That cares if you drown
Face down in the ocean"
