Thaione Davis – Still Hear (10 Year Anniversary Limited Edition) - New 2 LP Record 2019 Culture Power45 USA Vinyl - Chicago Hip Hop

Limited Edition 2 x LP (double vinyl) Street Shipping date: 11/14/19

Seasoned producer/emcee Thaione Davis returns to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of one of his most poignant releases to date. Aged in the subtle undertones as fine wine, STILL HEAR remains a staple composition that has weathered thru constant evolving trends. Heralded by critics all across the board as one of the best albums of 2009, STILL HEAR has circulated across 6 continents and even made its way to the Grammy’s table for a spin. Some approaches are simple. The recipe of 1 emcee and 1 producer has always yielded consistent results. Rashid Hadee handles complete production and provides a post 90’s backdrop of dusty sample rich melodies over chunky drumbeats. Simple in essence….effortless quality. Thaione Davis rhymes with the carefree vigor of a young seventeen year old enthusiast less concerned with majority opinion. Slick lines and heavy content, with a signature flow and easy delivery. STILL HEAR represents an unassuming approach of microphone mastery and well thought out composition. What was true 10 years ago, still holds true today. Relevant lyrics for relevant times. A timeless addition to the catalog. This is the first time ever on vinyl and packaged as 2 x LP (double vinyl) release. Updated original artwork and mural painted by Marcellous Lovelace.
