(Norfolk, Virginia)
This track is taken from my latest project “Petey’s Soapbox”
Before there was politically correct and inequalities hidden beneath smiles and denials, there was Petey Green. A man of conviction that wasn’t afraid to say the unpopular things to get people’s attention. Petey’s Soapbox is an album dedicated and created in the spirit of the unpopular truth.
Pittsburgh native Grand Ear, who has provided sounds for J. Sands of Lone Catalyst and various Hip-Hop artists in Pittsburgh, creates the gritty boom bap backdrop. Norfolk native Bobby Blunt, better known for his work with Aries Connection, provides the controversial yet witty words.
From the brutal honesty of the first track “I’m Gon Tell the Truth” to the emotional closure of the last track “Grandma” the feel, theme, and message is felt in every song. In the spirit of Public Enemy this album represents a missing piece in today’s Hip Hop climate.
