BLACK MILK - FEVER VINYL (LTD. ED. RED & BLACK MARBLE 2LP)

LIMITED EDITION RED & BLACK MARBLE 2LP VINYL

Release Date: 6th April 2018

The latest album from Detroit rapper & producer Curtis Cross, aka Black Milk, and his most important and politically charged record to-date. Cross juxtaposes his hard-hitting insightful lyrics with a melodic musical blend of hip-hop, soul, R&B, electronica and rock which is reminiscent of Oddisee by way of D'Angelo. FEVER is an eclectic album including tracks for any mood from party-starting boogies, down-beat contemplatives and sunny afternoon sit-back's! 

For Fans Of: Oddisee, D'Angelo, Anderson. Paak, Teebs 

"A virtuoso, known for boundary-pushing production (often fusing traditional hip-hop drum programming with sampling and live music) and thoughtful lyrics, Black Milk is respected across the industry for his unique sound, consistency and innovation. Returning to the scene amidst a turbulent political climate, the Detroit-born rapper / producer releases Fever, his latest studio album. Black Milk's sixth solo rap album, and his first since 2014's If There's a Hell Below, Fever combines pointed and topical lyrics and brilliant musicianship, including percussion from all-star musicians Chris “Daddy” Dave (D'Angelo, Adele, Justin Bieber) and Daru Jones (Jack White), bass by long-time collaborator Malik Hunter, and keys and guitar / bass from newcomers Ian Fink and Sasha Kashperko, respectively. Black Milk evolves his production style of fusing electronic, soul, rock and other soundscapes with electronic programming and live music, a method he began experimenting with on his 2010 release Album of the Year. A cohesive 12-track project, listening to Fever evokes the feeling of scrolling through an endless news feed, finding Black Milk reporting and commenting on the world's problems with empathy, clarity, and wit. Additional vocals from Dwele, Aaron "Ab" Abernathy, and Sudie (a producer / vocalist signed to Black Milk’s Computer Ugly label) serve to juxtapose Black’s heavy lyrical content with airy vibes."
