7: Lewis Parker - Masquerades & Silhouettes


The cover's ripped off from CTI you know. This was a record I've always wanted to hear but never got round to buying. Fortunately it's on iTunes so I had a fun week listening to it.

It's a bit different y'see - none of the drum heavy stuff here, not fast rap, no public enemy samples. 8 tracks only. It's incredible - like someone hearing hip hop but seeing something more than that and pushing themselves to create something unrepeatable.

It's romantic (I stole that from HHC) without being corny. It's one of those perfect records that sounds like nothing else and exists in it's own world.
