A couple years since my last beat tape, here's a project that has been in the works since November 2019. I teamed up with an old friend, Mad Candor, to create a boom bap album. It's my debut album as an emcee. All of the instrumentals are "romobeats." You will recognize some of them from previous releases, but I also produced some new stuff for this project. 

Taking inspiration from more traditional hip-hop groups such as People Under The Stairs, A Tribe Called Quest, Gangstarr etc. Emcees Mad Candor & Romo trade lyrics back and forth and build off of each others concepts over jazz based boom bap beats. 

This album was recorded and mixed between November 2019 - September 2020.

released September 25, 2020

black coffee LP

A continuation of previously released jazz hip hop albums like "Clouds of Smoke" and "Black Coffee," FEEL is a laid back collection of lofi, jazz hip hop instrumentals. This album is about feeling things fully. Let's not distract ourselves, numb ourselves, or dull our senses as the dominant culture would have us. Let us feel all of life's experiences in their entirety.

LYRICS

until your heart’s committed there’s hesitancy
but If you shift perspective many blessings to see
believe in the power of love It’s a gift from above 
and below it glows with effervescence my suggestion is to 

open your mind to find the love bestowed
it’s gold and black and white and everything in between
seems to me discrimination’s birthed by humanity 
this ignorance and hatred so pervasive to be

these days it’s hard to be alive
but we must survive and so we strive
eradicate the pressure so we rise above
and nothing lesser imma bless her with that good type of love

no push no shove yea that’s that good type of stuff
harmonious connection intersections learn a lesson
i’m detecting there’s resistance cuz we’re lacking real respect and
i won’t bite my tongue yo we gon resurrect it

The more we try to chase the universe, the more it expands, the more it runs away from itself. It won't do that if you don't chase it!
