Ladies and
Gentlemen…I introduce to you…KORI BLAKE
– back with a 10-song resurrection entitled “Rapsody.”
Rapsody is a talent-filled offering of lyrical punch-lines,
melodic grooves, and infectious choruses. It clearly
articulates the maturity and growth of the artist and is a
breath of fresh air from the overdone, braggadocios and
sex-ridden exhibitions of most female rappers.
“I ain’t
here to beef, I just wanna make ‘em dance,
Waitin’ to excel baby breathe, then
advance.”
“Here We Go (Remix)”
This album
bridges the gap between the “ole heads” and the
“teeny-boppers” of music; between the R&B conservatives and
the avid listeners of rap. Kori Blake’s concepts of
womanhood and her ingenuity of style pierce through the
thought-provoking “If I Was Yo’ Woman” and the monster
ladies’ anthem “Still We Rise” With songs like “Don’t
Stop” and “Ooh Boy” which mix ole-school tunes and Kori
Blake’s hypnotic voice, the hodgepodge of supporters is
limitless. Surprisingly enough, you won’t find this album
stamped with the “explicit lyrics” moniker so often plagued
by rap artists’ albums. “…my talents take me far beyond
curse words. I just wanna make good music and
money.” |
