KING-ISH
“For surely a king is first a man. And so it must follow that a king does what all men do, the best he can”
The ability to craft a verse, concept and true story and put it to music may seem like a simple enough task to most. However, to be able to confidently put truth to thought, pen to pad and rhythm to lyrics and push that initial thought into a whole ideation that is carefully constructed and listenable with replay value it more difficult than most can handle. The music of the modern era is vibe and sound composition with little to no attention to words and the narrative, this is where this artist breaks that mold. A modern musician with a modern story and his own interpretation of that story but with its own classic vibe.
S.L.B is that artist. He is a man with an album titled King-ish and in that album he delves into the narrative of life that is unmistakably him and truth. From the intro to the ending track you can hear the attention to detail that is crafted into the album. With little to no features the album is his and not a collective project and if you have met the man you would know that his hustle is not only in his music but in his ability to move his music. He has memorable tracks with catchy hooks and a few standouts are My Bag, Money on My Mind, and Stop Me Now. Listen to a man that has the heart of a hustler, the pen of a street poet and the dedication of a King.
