Thank GOD for Real People Music, Daniel Street has captured my Hip Hop heart again. FMS or (Feed My Seeds Entertainment) has put together a musical journey into the mind of a young man that is in, around, and from the streets, but moving toward achieving his goal of feeding his seeds (kids) and annihilating the competition in the process.
From the first note to the last it is nothing short of a masterpiece, I believe this will be the Gold Standard for Music in years to come. My Favorites are “Poetry In Motion Phenomenon” a witty yet hypnotic club song. This jam actually leaves the listener feeling good about women at the end in the mist of the misogynous F’n every girl in the world mentality so many artists bombard us with. Another standout is “I’m Not Slowin Down” this is a gritty street groove with a twist where D St. calls out the glamorous rapper for claiming his hood but the hood is still not good. In an era where the industry has decided to take the low road or path of least resistance it’s the young people who will ultimately suffer for this, I’m glad to see that someone has decided to walk the walk. There is no interludes just straight music but the songs are arranged brilliantly and I was halfway through before I even realized the entire album is radio friendly.
On top of this you can download the full 10 song compilation for 1 dollar; this is unheard of, especially in these times where so much emphasis is put into making money. You can tell that this was a well thought out and conscious plan to change the mindset in today’s overindulgent, corporate feeding frenzy called the entertainment industry. The main message from Daniel Street is hope.
I hate that Michael Jackson had to die before heard this piece of work, 2009 has been a year of change and turmoil, President Obama, Global warming, 2012, reality TV, the digital change, I phones, twitter, and that’s just pop culture. I am old school hip hop 101, and I get tired of being the old cynical “Hater” as my younger colleges say, but any self respecting Hip Hop Fan knows the music has drastically taken a turn for the worse, and just because the so-called artists are finally getting the reparations for the past treatment of the cultures Icons, it does them a great disservice to bastardize the music’s legacy buy placing inarticulate smut peddlers on a pedestal. It pains me that I cannot watch music video’s with my Mother or my Children, Daniel Street and Real People music is a bold and bigger step into the future of what has been a part of my life over 25 years.
The music we love is back, Hip Hop was never dead we just stopped listening; Hip Hop is Real People Music. See for yourself www.feedmyseeds.com I give RPM 5 mics, two thumbs up and a big woop woop.
