I'm a rock guy, i like musicians like Axl Rose and Robert Plant. I usually turn away from Rap and Hip Hop cause its just not me. But people like Willis King and his Album UNFADEABLE is not something i can just turn away from. Yes, the music is angry, intense, sometimes even violent. But its more than that. Its has alot of emotion and truth. It doesn't follow the "template" of other music played on the radio just to make a quick buck. I also like his rhymes and music and the way he delivers it.
For example, the song KILL YOU: which can be heard on his myspace page. Has a calm beat with a light piano harmony that contrast angry and descriptive lyrics. I find that genius. In rock music, the music matches the mood. Or at least most songs i hear. In this song Willis is showing both sides of himself, a cool chill dude and another side you just don't want to cross.
In short, Willis has given me a new genre of music i can explore.
And his album... Aint gonna fade away anytime soon.
