Elaquent – Parallel

“Normally I have a really long, detailed, philosophical explanation as to the meaning of my album and what I was trying to do. And I certainly do, but this time, I will try not to overcomplicate things.

Parallel lines refer to two lines that never intersect or touch…which is how i feel about this music shit lately. I’m certainly not the only musician doing the kind of music that I do, but I find a lot of pressure in all sorts of places to follow the same type of formula as other artists, many of which I’m fans of. However, I would rather stay in my own lane…i believe that the destination is ultimately the same. Kind of one of those ideas that is applicable in all fascades of life, ultimately, the purpose is to what makes sense and suits you, rather than altering yourself to fit in with everybody else, at the end of the day, we are all striving and moving in the same direction.

In terms of the music, I wanted to challenge myself more. very little sampling, spent a lot of time trying to work on the actual composition of everything so that my music feel more like songs, than just beats. I suppose it will ultimately be up to you to decide whether it worked, or if you like it or not. I just wanted to step a bit outside of my comfort zone and approach the body of music from a different standpoint, being at a different point in my life.”

Surviving in hip-hop is easy, you have skills and you have beats, the rest falls into place, right? If only it were so simple. Mississippi firebrand 7evenThirty takes a break from demolishing civilizations to shed light on the harsh climate of rap music on a leak from his upcoming concept album, Heaven’s Computer.

“Mysterious Business” tackles the question of sustaining within the realm of professional hip-hop. Erik L’s beat is an ominous, brooding arrangement that could be equally at home as the soundtrack to a 80’s video game dungeon level. 7even appears as a weary rhymer, jaded and disenchanted by the ups and downs of the indie grind, he closes his verse with the poignant question: “would you do this shit for free?” Partners Sleepy Will and Kamikaze (some folks may know Kamikaze as 1/2 of the Jackson bred duo Crooked Lettaz) both hit it out the park. Detailing the plight of the independent artist and underscoring how all MC’s are selling something, the two MC’s spit convincing bars without coming off bitter.

“I’m Posdonous with a pistol, you rappers get plugged / One”

Whether bombing tracks or imploding planets, 7evenThirty goes hard with brutal honesty. Heaven’s Computer arrives 9/25 via Mello Music Group.
