magnetagnet This album is a blessing to this world! Clever without losing tenderness, I catch myself smiling. It gets better with each listen. Each track is so intentionally + lovingly crafted, and together its a portal into Rhamier's vibrant inner world to seep in for 40 lucky minutes. I self medicate on this album. I crave it when I want to boogey a little. I queue it up when I need that funky seratonin boost. I want to hug it and squeeze it and eat it up and leave no crumbs. yummmyyyyyyy Favorite track: dollar van funk.

jdlh So generous, this lovely album, spilling over with undergrounded wordplay that flies above our heads then floats back down to eye level, back into the intimate mix with sharply focused intention. Personal, political, raw, silly, sharp, serious, comforting, worldshaking, and of course full of funk. A whole opening up. Can’t recommend this enough. Impossible to choose a favorite track but
Favorite track: so alone.

so alone 02:53
Eyes fixed on the pool, listened as shadows left Feeling for my breath, its lateness akin to death Thought this was an album but it's really a gazette The type to keep the dreams you forget Tried turning a new leaf, turns out it's still a leaf Tried changing the climate blowing gas, burning trees What do I do when each day brings nothing new? Reminisce on the days when View Master gave me views Bathing in solitude, a journey can keep me dry I invited u in, you're still standing outside Lived in flames all my life, i don't believe in no hell Been imprisoned in a gender it's a cell called male Ain't resurrecting what's dead so Mary Don't You Weep Because a moment of pain can bring eternal relief In my nightmares attempting to dream about dreaming Eternal fire, pearly gates, both lights beaming So alone So alone So alone So alone, so alone, so alone So alone So alone So alone So alone, so alone, so alone I need a believer to inquire with who's above Who made me exceptional from the fruit of joy and love My soul laid bare, center folded like a fetus Losing my patience, is there doctor that can treat us Letters I wrote lovers, please, tell me what it spells When I fail to open up, I just blame it on my shell Nothing will be enough, I'm hoping u still care On the other side of the door, I'm hoping you're still there They all turned around when I needed them the most Told me to fight my demons, u ain't never fight a ghost Dancing with the devil and he likes 2 hold me close Dining on depression death and life made a toast The sun is always set, I've been tanning from the moon light Feelings never kept, I'm just moving with the broom right To the younger me, I'm just here to pay reverence Life might be a gift, but i never asked for presents So alone So alone So alone So alone, so alone, so alone So alone So alone So alone So alone, so alone, so alone

about

Dig this…

It’s street soul
It’s cassette culture
It’s housing project blues
It’s murky and dark funk

i recorded this album laying in bed.

imperfections were left in tact. the agenda was 2 create a body of work that felt dirty and underground, but with a funk/soul vibe. 90s Memphis rap tapes. D’Angelo and Tammy Lucas demos on YouTube. Old cassettes that were dubbed countless times and passed along 2 friends.

We deal with alienation, betrayal, love and hope. It’s an homage 2 Black music over space and time. Some of the songs were conceived jamming alongside some of my favorite albums or songs. These expressions are reflective of my personal experience over the past two years.

This album was mixed creatively, not unlike what dub artists in Jamaica were doing. There is something inviting about the texture of noise from a compressor or microphone. i like hearing the room when i record. It's all about balance, but i welcome what is brought into the room spiritually. The room is an instrument.

the album title was inspired by George Jackson’s dedication 2 his loved ones in “Soledad Brother.”

music belongs 2 the masses. and so it shall be…

can u get 2 that?
