First and foremost, here is the
track-list to “Just To Let You Know”, feast your eyes:
1. Intro
2. Outside
3. Just To Let You Know ft. Jeremiah
4. 60 Barz
5. Tell 'em [Fire] ft. Perfect Marvel
6. Changes
7. Come Back ft. Jeremiah
8. Step It Up ft. Omri
9. Twilight_Bonus Track
If
you have not heard of Omri, then maybe you might be more familiar with Shai
Linne’s album “Attributes of God” in which there is a single titled “The
Omni’s” also featuring Andy Mineo and Giano. I think this is a very good feature
and it does our Malawian music scene very well. As yet, ephsix11 seems to be
doing very well and working hard in stretching its tent across the globe in
featuring a variety of international artists. To check out more about Omri please see http://www.isix5.com.
The Single That You Have NOT Heard (THIS SINGLE WILL BE RELEASED ON FRIDAY):
Just
To Let You Know ft. Jeremiah: I won’t talk about the production aspects to this
track because I was given an unmixed copy of it – one of the perks of being a
reviewer is getting a first listen to many unreleased singles and only hope
that by the time the track comes out for the public it will be a healthy mix.
But I can talk about other technical issues: the song has two well-rounded
verses by C-Scripture; it always amazes me that his delivery is as strong as it
is. He keeps up in both verses without slacking but I prefer his first verse
more than his second. I think he is a rapper who tries to bring you into his thoughts as opposed to bringing his thoughts out to you – there
is a difference because it affects how the artist will choose to communicate
himself, as a result, the second verse is a little trickier to understand
because of his style. Or better explained: it is as though he gives you pieces
to a puzzle and lets you arrange them into order instead of giving you an
already arranged puzzle. Secondly, am glad that Jeremiah’s contribution to this
track was restricted to the hooks. The hook is really addictive and addictive
and addictive. It almost feels as though the song production was tailored
around the hook because they complement each other very nicely. Bottom line:
the title track is good!
The Single That You Have Heard:
Tell
Em’ (Fire) ft. Perfect Marvel: At first I was a little apprehensive at the
feature but now I am a firm believer: the boy can hold his own! What you have
on this track is today’s generation mixing it up with tomorrow’s mouthpiece and
the dawn is almost upon us. C-Scripture has been busy indeed, to have acquired
lyrical back-up of this caliber (and the Omri feature) is no small effort. I
hope that many more artists in Malawi can pick up on this work ethic and do
more to establish themselves. “Tell Em’” is such a sucker punch and after
having heard two singles I am eagerly expectant of what is in store. I
personally am waiting for the Omri feature, and “60 Barz” – if it is what I
think it is then it should be an indicator as to C-Scripture’s lyrical
capabilities.
The
project will be released on the 29th of December, check out ALL
social media for download links. You can also catch C-Scripture as he ministers
at BBC (Blantyre Baptist Church) for Youth-fest 2012 on the same day.
