Ghost Town Prophecy
By Linda A. Annan
Kae Sun finally put finishing touches to his debut album. Ghost Town Prophecy will be available for online purchases by August 21 on iTunes, Napster, Amazon, Snocap and all other internet retail music stores, though its release is set for September 6.
The six-track album represents what its title suggests: “Human society currently, where the emphasis is on productivity and not on human connection,” explains Kae Sun.
“We come in contact with people on the daily but how much do we really know about them and how much do we truly care for our neighbor? So in essence our cities have these symptoms of being ghost towns even though there are millions of people in the average big city,” he further explains the idea behind the album.
Like he mentioned in his last interview with Obaasema, this musical record is a blend of soul, jazz, reggae and even a bit of rock, if you pay close attention to the end of the track “Where Did Everybody Go.”
“Stay Up” is a very uplifting track with euphonic tunes that perfectly fit its message.
The lyrics of all six songs are nothing but consciousness; it reminds you of how much today's generation of young artists are becoming more aware of what is most important by sending messages of truth through songs with the intent of educating our youth. Though a good amount of the masses are still attracted to mainstream Hip-hop, there seems to be hope for some form of positive change.
So, if you are feeling conscious and/or are searching for CDs worth your money, check this one out and see if it fits in your cart.
