┌┐
│║ You probably remember C.L. Smooth from the 90's duo Pete Rock
│║ & C.L. Smooth, whose critically acclaimed album Mecca & the
│║ Soul Brother still inspire legions of hip-hop artists today.
│║ Well, if you don't that's only because C.L. Smooth has been on
│║ a ten-year hiatus from hip-hop. Not to worry, though, Smooth
│║ is back for the first time with his solo debut American Me
│║ slated for early October on Black Heart Entertainment / Shaman
│║ Works. One of the album's Executive Producers, Lamar Gilliam,
│║ told About.com exclusively that American Me will feature
│║ producers Mike Loe, R-Sonist (Heatmakerz), Divine Mill, and
│║ Squarta.
│║
│║ "Being as big a fan of true hip-hop music as anyone, I'm
│║ excited about this record because C.L. Smooth is truly a
│║ legend of the game. This album is history in the making," said
│║ Gilliam. "I can't recall another rapper in the game who took
│║ 10 years away from the mic only to come back to still remain
│║ one of the dopest ever. C.L. said that he had 'unfinished
│║ business' with the industry and on American Me, he's proving
│║ that this is only the beginning of the return of the Mecca
│║ Don," he added.As the Mecca to Pete Rock's Soul Brother, C.L.
│║ dazzled with his seamless flow and intricate wordplay on songs
│║ like "The Main Ingredient," "Straighten It Out," and "They
│║ Reminisce Over You."
│║
│║ On American Me, C.L. tackles both political and personal
│║ misconceptions head-on, his swift delivery still intact. While
│║ his rhymes have become more accessible, the poetics are still
│║ as convoluted and as intriguing as ever. The Mecca Don has
│║ never had to rely on thuggery or gangsterism to grab ears, and
│║ he's not about to start. Admittedly his own worst critic, C.L.
│║ succeeds in elevating his sound without compromising the
│║ creative process. Fans will be impressed with thunderous tunes
│║ like "Smoke in the Air" and the title track "American Me," as
│║ well as smoothed out grooves like "C.L. Smooth Unplugged" and
│║ "The Outsider."
│║
│║ Enjoy and BUY when it drops!
│║
│║ -------------------------------
│║
│║ NOTE: Props to C** for dropping Promo of this album. Ours is
│║ Retail with all tracks and no fade outs.
