Allen Thomas
Born out of necessity, the newest and perhaps most cathartic release from Decatur’s own Allen Thomas, tells the story of ‘The Tree That Split in Two’. Though the musically seasoned rapper-producer is no stranger to passionate storytelling – this new project delves directly into and through the heart of the artists, like lightning through the body of an oak.
The listening experience, like some of his previous releases, can be described as a nostalgic continuum. It feels like a familiar stream of consciousness, taking quiet command of your attention for a concise, yet meaningful twenty minutes. By the time you arrive at those final few seconds of mellow instrumentation (fashioned by Lazarus, himself), you will have bobbed your head right into your own state of self-reflection.
Gretzky Da Sumo
An Atlanta emcee by way of Pittsburgh, Gretzky Da Sumo has a style that’s informed by Wu Tang, Mobb Meep and more currently Griselda. Always slick with his pen with a powerful voice that booms and cuts through most of the noise you get from current rap.
Chocolate KNDY
Raised in a motley host of environments from Florida to Zambia, the currently Charlotte-based artist known as ‘Chocolate KNDY’ is a rapper, songwriter, muse and the lead singer of ‘SNAP the Band’. With a diverse pen stemming from a colorful background, her subject matter is always freshly approached, and ranges from provocative to introspective. KNDY’s live performances consistently showcase her playful, eclectic and alluring style – reminding us that there’s always something more to experience.
