CURLY CASTRO
LITTLE ROBERT HUTTON (ICY BLUE VINYL) (BACKWOODZ STUDIOZ)
Curly Castro's new album Little Robert Hutton is a paen to the radical imagination. Over the course fourteen songs, the Bajan-American artist fuses his vivid wordplay with a historical continuum of black revolutionary thought and the result is an AfroFuturist vision in 3-D IMAX.
This is Castro's rawest and most uncompromising work, the heat from a thousand ghetto uprisings smoldering in every bar.
Lyrical gymnastics take a backseat to the power of the word and the concussive energy of the beats.
Little Robert Hutton is hard in every sense of the word, speaker rattling banger after banger.
That production is handled by Quelle Chris, Messiah Musik, Blueprint, August Fanon, Locust, DOS4GW and Jason Griff.
The album also features guest appearances from Breezly Brewin, Mr. Lif, PremRock, billy woods, Zilla Rocca, Marcus Pinn, ALASKA, SKECH185, Candice Murray and Margel the Sophant.
The Blacker the Berry, the Blacker the Blood. The Blacker the Truth, the Blacker the Panther, The Blacker the Retribution - Curly Castro
