Sa-Ra



Here's another incredible album for you to check out from the group Sa-Ra Creative Partners. The name of the album is "The Hollywood Recordings". The music can't be classified but when you try it comes out like ancient futuristic souled out hip hop funk porn music with a little bit of knowledge of self. The group consists of Om'Mas Keith, Taz Arnold, and Shafiq Husayn. They're is based in LA/NY, and have individually been around for a while working with everyone from Dre to Suave House and Ice T. The name Sa-Ra (pronounced Sah-Rah) is a Kemetic term meaning "the off spring of the most powerful energy in the universe", or "child of the cosmos". They signed to Kanye West's label GOOD Music sometime last year. This album however is on Babygrande, but they have the major label debut supposedly coming out this fall so look out.

This is the best line ever.

This is actually a comment on the Blue Scholars post above.

I agree with you about the album being destined for greatness. In fact, I was telling Neshani about them when she was out here a little while ago.

Though, Bayani has some stiff competition from Brother Ali's The Undisputed Truth album that was released last month.

In any event, it's been a great spring for true hip hop.
