A man with a horn. A man who scat/sings. Good-looking. Slick.
Cool cats down with the vibe. Sounds like a description of some
ultra-hip jazz duo in the 30's. Not really. Actually, it's two
men who are very much part of this millenium. At first glance,
the pairing seems a bit unusual. Trumpet player and rapper. But
while those words are accurate, somehow they fail to describe
where these guys are musically.
Johnny B. and Sean E. Mac stand close together, brothers in the
music that bonded them. These two are throw backs prehaps, but
only to the Marvin Gaye-time of sensual songs sung and played in
a way that made you want to hug your radio. The delicious duo
delivers serious music that makes you smile, relax, groove and
just plain ole feel good. The first album is called "You're Gonna
Love It".
The men who came together make up Impromp2 are no up-starts
either. Johnny B. was trained at the Conservatory of Music in
Versailles, France, where he studied trumpet and composition.
After he returned to the U.S. he got his first break, thanks to
Otis Williams from the Temptations. Johnny became the group's
musical director for three years and earned himself a reputation
for musical excellence touring on trumpet with David Bowie and
singing background for Luther Vandross. Johnny's got a long list
of credits and a short list of the kind of music he wanted to
make, "I had this idea of combining the flavor of Marvin Gaye's
ground-breaking 70's style, Miles Davis's jazz influence, and a
modern day form of rap."
Enter Sean, eyes half hidden by the custom shades, who adds
enough rap fluidity for a generation who likes its music with rap
attached. Big and buff, Sean could be taken at first sight as a
tough guy, but in minutes he has everyone around laughing. It's
natural. Sean was a stand-up comedian around L.A. after he had
paired with his brother as the rap group Rappinstine. They were
featured on the very first album by NWA and signed to an
ultimately fruitless deal with Quincy Jones's Qwest label. The
smile is replaced by intensity when he talks about the music. You
know it's no laughing matter up in here. "We wanted a live feel,
we wanted our first album to have international appeal."
The pair found Irish producer Steve Harvey, to give that
"international flavor." To lock down that "live" feel, Impromp2
used producer Harvey on drums, precussion and keyboards; Isley
Brother's bassman Sekou Bunch and two members of the Gap Band,
guitarist Jimmy Macon and Roman Johnson on Fender Rhodes and
Minimoog. In addition to lead and background vocals with partner
Sean, Johnny plays trumpet and flugehorn on a number of tracks.
Fuck P2P, and the idiots who use it.
