Mello Music Group: Semi Hendrix - "Breakfast at Banksy's"

[sinatra.45]

Didn’t see a label thread for Mello Music Group, or any info on Semi Hendrix’s new album “Breakfast at Banksy’s”.

 

For those unaware, Mello Music Group has been cranking out excellent hip hop albums for the past several years.  A friend described them as being like the Castle Face Records for hip hop.  A lot of great artists are featured but for me anything with Oddisee, L'Orange, Jeremiah Jae, Open Mike Eagle, and Apollo Brown has my attention.

 

Like Lao Tzu in Hiphop, Mello Music Group provides music for the soul, from the heart of American culture, opening the realm of the intelligent Hiphop experience through melodic evocations, beats that corroborate the truth, and voices that roar above the rising void and impose order on the terrible & triumphant moments of everyday life. This is the compelling sound of Mello Music Group.

MMG does a great job with vinyl releases with many of them colored editions that are in step with the album art work.  Semi Hendrix's "Breakfast at Bansksy's", released yesterday, is a great example.  Awesome hip hop album, heavy on the funk.

 

Semi Hendrix is the acid inside the headband and the fork inside the electric socket. It’s hard-core hip-hop, furious voltage spiked with funk and soul. It’s political and street, cerebral and reckless. It’s Jack Splash and Ras Kass running roughshod over everything from economic inequality to racist government policy to your girl. The album title is Breakfast at Banksy’s. Consider it the rare soundtrack for the revolution and the party.
