| | Hey kids, just wanted to take a break from livin la vida loca to pause
for the cause and share one of my latest music picks with you.
If
you are one of my Nashville peeps, then I probably don't have to tell
you who Mat Kearney is. But now the world finally has a chance to hear
for themselves.
Yesterday, Mat's Aware/Columbia Records'
national debut, "Nothing Left To Lose", was released. It is comprised
of 6 songs from Mat's Inpop Records' release, "Bullet", plus 7 brand
new songs. If you already have "Bullet" and are hesitant to purchase
the new album, throw caution to the wind, bite the bullet (pun
intended) and go get the new record!
In short, "Nothing Left To
Lose" is a masterpiece. It's only April and I can confidently say that
this record is a shoe-in for my Top 10 albums of the year. Yes, it is
that good. Mat's music is instantly disarming and he has an uncanny
ability of communicating truth through his music with so much depth and
vulnerability that it is hard not to feel equally challenged by and
connected to his experiences.
I bought the album on iTunes in
the early morning hours of Tuesday, April 18 and found my way to a Best
Buy on the harbor here in Baltimore where I purchased 3 more copies,
for only $7.99 each, to give away to friends.
After
spending some more time with the album throughout the day yesterday, I
found that I needed more and went back to buy 2 more copies of the CD
today. It's that good, folks.
You can click here to listen to the whole album on AOL Music for at least the next few days.
If
you are looking for some great new music and you like quality with your
tunes, I highly recommend Mat Kearney's "Nothing Left To Lose". I also
highly recommend that you pick it up this week and show some street
week support to the brotha!
If you get the record, hit me back with your thoughts!
Peace! |
