On their latest release Georgia Anne Muldrow and Declaime (Dudley Perkins) bring back the straight up hip-hop. With both artists branching out to the R&B, Soul and Funk genres on several recent releases it’s nice to hear them giving us their signature funky hip-hop flavor. With guest verses and production from the likes of Kool G Rap, Flying Lotus, M.E.D., Oddisee, Big Pooh and Black Milk it’s clear where G & D stand within the underground rap game.
“Georgia Anne Muldrow brims with so much optimism and anxious energy that it barely contains itself… It’s just an enchanting moment from an enormously promising young talent.”- NPR
Dudley Perkins is a veteran to the game, whose voice overflows with bluesy, syncopated veracity. He never hits the notes you expect, rhymes to the cadence you imagined, or sounds like anyone else: Dudley captivates with the unmistakable sound of experience, reaching deeper within our collective conscious than most of us are comfortable with. Dudley breaths a spiritual wind back into the supercool, funked out vibrations of hip-hop.
Georgia Anne Muldrow radiates light into west coast hip-hop. Georgia’s youthful flow is a beguiling mix social revolution and raw street wisdom. Her choruses, a haunting echo of our ancestors’ reality. And her beats, a cosmic exploration of interplanetary funk. Her collaborative efforts over the past few years (Erykah Badu, Mos Def, Madlib) have garnered her a well deserved spotlight.
