Experimental Hip-Hop layered over vintage dub Reggae

Details:
This is Mesh's last foray to date into rap music, and more specifically Dub-Hop, a self-created genre combining the irrepressible rhythms of vintage 70's dub reggae with modern surreal lyrics. Kicked with incomparably unique vocal phrasings, together the combination is just RAW! Two other tracks incorporate a Brazilian rhythm and an R & B groove respectively.

While originally intended as scratch vocals for the final productions, these takes proved to be the most energetic and immediate, combining Mesh's historical accomplishment in rap music (being an early rap artist on the seminal Profile records) with his abilities to elicit the surreal at will.

Do enjoy this journey as it takes you into the world of Graffiti and general New York City living as experienced by Mesh.
