B. Bravo (aka Adam Mori) returns to Bastard Jazz with the long-awaited follow-up to his 2017 debut LP, “Paradise,” with a fresh full-length offering: “Vizionz.” Replete with his signature future funk vibes, infectiously soulful grooves, and talkbox excursions, “Vizionz” sees the multifaceted artist take the classic West Coast into outer space. If B. Bravo’s last album sought to get lost in paradise - enjoying the moment here and now - “Vizionz” looks forward, feet placed firmly in an established LA vibe, while the matured eyes of a veteran producer gaze keenly to the future. 

“Vizionz” arrives following a slew of diverse singles, which highlight B. Bravo’s stunning versatility as a songwriter, producer, and collaborator. Last year’s “Lifted (What U Waiting 4)” came first, at the end of May, 2020, pairing g-funk talk-box verses and synth lines with rich vocal harmonies and a dance-floor-ready beat. Frequent collaborator Reva DeVito (Miami Horror, Kaytranada) makes a standout vocal appearance on “Fly Bye,” the second single. Here, Adam surrounds Reva’s vocals with ambient pads, a Dilla-inspired beat, and an irresistible bassline, while Reva’s dreamily sings about getting away from it all. The final single, “Believe,” sees Chuck Inglish (of the famed duo The Cool Kids) rhyme in his distinctive baritone over a bass-heavy instrumental meant to rattle some car stereos. 

The singles offer a view into the rest of the album: Solo B. Bravo joints include “Moon Bounce,” a talk-box boogie jam begging for late-night drives with the top down; the largely-instrumental synth improvisation, “Midnight Rider;” the upbeat “Penelope,” which showcases Adam’s vocal and harmonic prowess; a bumping g-funk interlude, with “Flip Out;” as well as the laid back album opener, “Da Essence.” 

Further vocal assists come by way of Sally Green on the flirty “10/10,” and Rojai on the slow jam ““No Regrets” . Both singers have worked on B. Bravo projects in the past, with Rojai additionally joining forces with Adam to form the duo Kool Customer, whose self-titled debut album was released on Bastard Jazz in 2018. Two more hip-hop-leaning tracks are aided by Def Sound (“Back Times Two”) and Nico Fasho (“Ms. Stardust”); leaning heavy into outerspace G-Funk Hip-Hop vibes. 

Taken as a whole, “Vizionz” is a much needed boost of serotonin: Uncompromisingly positive, sometimes nostalgic, sometimes aspirational, but always funky. The range of styles is a testament to Adam’s indelible production chops, songwriting skill, and ability to collaborate. While it has been a long 5 years since “Paradise,” “Vizionz” proves more than worth the wait.

Potatohead People - Last Nite feat. Redman

“Keepin’ It Kool” is the second single from Potatohead People’s upcoming “Eat Your Heart Out” album. Opening with swinging drums, a Bill Withers-esque guitar lick and an earworm of a hook sung by the PP, the song opens up into beautiful R&B vocals from Vancouver’s Kendra Dias. Lyrically the song touches on two common & paradoxical relationship angles–thinking someone is playing it cool, while that person is only playing it cool to see the same interest back. Lovely string arrangements, classic organ, and throwback musical change-ups turn thesong into pure magic. “Eat Your Heart Out” hits everywhere on May 10th.

Lyrics:
You come around
You make me sick
With that cool lovey dovey shit
You never care
How far you go
You just can't get enough of it
I bite my tongue
I bide my time
You lick your lips
You drink your wine
I keep on waiting
Waiting in line
Hoping for some kind of sign

I pretend that I don't notice
But I know down deep inside that

I want a love like that
I want a love
Strong like a heart attack
To fire me up

Call me up
Real late at night
When the sex isn't dynamite
Let's skip dessert
That mini skirt
Yeah you know it's the one I like
I wish you well
You wish me worse
I write you speeches
That sound rehearsed
I keep on reaching
But in reverse
Hoping I can break this curse

I pretend that I don't notice
But I know down deep inside that

I want a love like that
I want a love
Strong like a heart attack
To fire me up

Going out my mind
Waiting for some sign
Going out my mind and I say
Going out my mind
Waiting for some sign
Going out my mind

Lyrics:
I got a secret for ya
Something you’ll never find
That only I can show ya
Yeah that one of a kind
Don’t wait til night approaches
Just open up your mind
And fade right out of focus
Dreaming in the daytime

So much on my mind
Sometimes it’s hard to stay focused
I tow the line
I’ve been losing track of time
It’s like I’m under hypnosis
And then I slide

Cali coasting with my tenderon’
Rollin’ through the avenoes
Champagne toastin in a Fleetwood Brougham
I’m zonin’
But I’ll be back tomorrow mornin’

I got a secret for ya
Something you’ll never find
That only I can show ya
Yeah that one of a kind
Don’t wait til night approaches
Just open up your mind
And fade right out of focus
Dreaming in the daytime

Dreaming in
Going out of my mind
Dreaming in
Dreaming in the daytime

Wussie
The style is steel-clad
Y’all need to practice like you need some pussy real bad
And that the most you could emphasize
Never tell a lie
When he boast his temperature rise
Keep it on the humble
Speaking on a mumble
Creep dive and tumble
Back on his feet foes tremble and crumble
Send your best wide-receiver
Incomplete fumble
The whole team rumble
Remember it’s just a game
Keep your helmet on numbskull
Things could get uncomfortable and sticky
That’s why he wears the metal mask
Kick me
I must be dreaming in the daytime
Company scheming
I think I see him by the ley line in a foreigner
Wouldn’t want to be him he’s a goner
Laid out in the gutter peeing on the corner
Territory mark like gang tag
Tell your story till it’s dark like dang dag
More gorier than Maury on a slang rag
Yet cornier than a man-fag’s handbag
Even if it’s Gucci
Ten feet at least or he kicks him in his coochie
Take your shoes and sell them to a hoochie
DOOM get the luchi like the scoochi boochi noochi

Lyrics:
If you want it
Then I got it
If you need it
Baby I’ll be it
You just tell me
When to go
You can get it
Baby let me know
Ohh

I’m on my radio
Sending my signal to ya baby
I must confess
Body out of control
I wanna crash into you mayday
This is an SOS

If you want it
Then I got it
If you need it
Baby I’ll be it
You just tell me
When to go
You can get it
Baby let me know
Ohh

We’ll shoot up to the stars
I got a rocket in my pocket
On cruise control
Can you pick up what I’m putting down
Don’t drop it
Hold on and don’t let go

If you want it
Then I got it
If you need it
Baby I’ll be it
You just tell me
When to go
You can get it
Baby let me know
Ohh

If you want it
Baby you know I got it
If you need it
Baby you know I’ll be it
