Respect The Culture, LLC, a Philadelphia-based record label and multi-media company, has released Nex Millen/Retrospectiveâs debut solo album, âWho is Mumia Abu Jamal?â The new CD features the spoken word of controversial death row inmate and political prisoner Mumia Abu Jamal.
Nex Millenâs alternative, soulful beats accompany the spoken word of Jamal, recorded from death row at Huntingdon State Prison and S.C.I. Greene. The album also includes guest appearances by Assata Shakur, Allen Ginsberg & Jello Biafra.
âA diversion from the smooth rhyme style featured in Nex Millen/Retrospectiveâs work with former groups, Souls of the Lost Elements and the Group of Pimps, Millenâs latest effort features his skillful production and a message in his music â the message of death row inmate Mumia Abu Jamal,â said the albumâs Executive Producer Marci Krufka. âFrom the haunting keyboards of âTo Be Like Malcolm, A Message To Mumiaâ to the funky, up-tempo sound of âA Bright Shining Hellâ to the subtle scratching in âStatement of the Factsâ and âLegalized Crimeâ to the moving strings of âThe Depth of Our Courage,â Millenâs beats artfully support the powerful lyrics without detracting from the purpose of the piece â to allow listeners to hear the voice of Jamal and his supporters â many for the first time.â
