i think its fairly clear that ireallylovemusic<\/u> and hip hop have not exactly been getting along too well in recent times.<\/p>\n
however, in this dry spell there have been a couple of albums that have done the trick, so here’s a well earned nudge just in case you have a need to check out some non-thugged up major label crap.<\/p>\n
first up is edan<\/strong>s pal, dagha, <\/strong>and his recent the divorce<\/font> album that’s out via those good people at lewis recordings.<\/u><\/p>\n with the album being a dive into the mans own personal history then it should come as no surprise to hear that this is straight up, telling it like it is album, with the whole issue laid down bare for all to hear.<\/p>\n the trials and tribulations of love, parenting, and holding down the necessity to earn that pay cheque, are the main themes that hold this fine album together, oh, and the small matter of dagha<\/strong>s recent breakdown of a relationship culminating in the divorce.<\/p>\n in other words, the real world that most people can relate to, as opposed to all that g-unit<\/strong> gangsta gumph.<\/p>\n dagha <\/strong>has an easy on the ear flow, making the album refreshingly open and honest with stories that hit home, as opposed to hitting hard. the majority of the albums tracks are set to some fine looped scratchy jazz based samples and beats (mostly put down by dj real<\/strong>), the music nods to the old school, with little in the way of concessions to the need to drop r-n-b choruses to hit the charts.<\/p>\n highly recommended.<\/p>\n more detail<\/u> : here<\/a> – – myspace<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" i think its fairly clear that ireallylovemusic and hip hop have not exactly been getting along too well in recent times. however, in this dry spell there have been a couple of albums that have done the trick, so here’s a well earned nudge just in case you have a need to check out some […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-924","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-everything"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=924"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/924\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=924"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ireallylovemusic.co.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
