MP3 Cwest & Pops - Semantic Disconnections
12 MP3 Songs
URBAN/R&B: R&B Rap mix, SPOKEN WORD: With Music
Details:
Born from PoHop(Poetry and Hip-Hop) emerges the hybrid sound of Cwest (Cornel J. West) and Pops (Clifton West). The father/son team laces together a rich sound of R&B and pop to their "life of the mind" lyrics. Transcending today''s classifications, it would be best described in the proverbial line as being ..."300 pounds on the street but only a hundred pounds in the sheets." Therapeutic as it is empowering, it scratches where it itches. Semantic Disconnections broaches varied topics in an artistic venue, which can only be characterized as being ''vintage Cwest''. Nobody No! tells a tale of a mother''s love for her rebellious child. Poerotica transports one to a place of sensual romanticism. Lost in Translation invites us to reflect on the essence and value of our everyday lives. Fidelity speaks of the fundamental organic commitment between man and woman as carnal lust evolves into that love upon which the survival of humankind is dependent. Matter of is a special tribute piece to Dr. Cornel West.
Cwest, Cornel J. West is a highly acclaimed local poet (Poet of the Year - 2003, Sacramento Observer). Operated the PoHop at locations throughout greater Sacramento area from 1997 through 2003. Host of numerous poetry slam competitions in Northern California.
