After the release of his hugely successful music video, 'I No Send U', his epoch making mixtape, 'Declassified', and the founding of his own recording studio/creative playhouse, 17-17 AudioLaB, the medical doctor/rapper/producer is in your faces once more with a fresh new take on the scene. And this time, it's tagged "#Escapology - The Producer Diaries". Presented in assocation with 17-17 AudioLaB and Crynesis Designs, and proudly supported by Club X and TowerGate Records, this new project will see the rap doctor take more of the production/engineering helm, while bringing a slew of highly talented artists on board for the ride.
Says the music doctor:
"Basically, the core idea [of #Escapology] is to express my creative yearnings in the music prduction aspect of things by showcasing what can happen when highly skilled artistry meets up-to-date, professional production/engineering paradigms. So every month, on the first monday, which we will tag #Escapology Mondays, premiering in May 2012, we will drop a fresh new joint, produced by me and starring the vocal prowess of an artist or artists with proven credibility in the game."
Armed with a Diploma in Music production & Audio Engineering from the Audio Institute of America, as well as his Bachelor of Medicine & Surgery degree, Dr Sankty is clearly well qualified to make that medico-musical magic happen once again.
See you on the 7th of May for the first #Escapology Monday!
Veteran rapper TheBossman, a.k.a Mr Oga, is
back from a productive hiatus with a brand new industry-strength release tagged
"TGFF", which stands for "Thank God For Friday". This
explosive set piece combines a club savvy rhythm section with cool Afro-beat
chords and conscious-type lyricism to create a compelling, cosmopolitan
2012-compatible groove with a sprinkling of the futuristic. With a lush blend
of rapping and sung harmonies and a soundtrack painstakingly crafted by producer
and medical doctor Dr Sankty [of
17-17 AudioLaB], The Bossman
cleverly illustrates and captures the emotional relief of the average working
class Nigerian on a friday, the last day of the working week, giving listeners
a truly stress-dissolving cruise experience that is totally at home in car
stereos during rush-hour traffic.This
joint is totally worth every second of its running time!
