I anxiously waited for September 27th the release of Phonte’s Charity Starts at Home. The MC of many talents part of the hip hop duo Little Brother and integral part of The Foreign Exchange which have both provided some of the best music of the last few years.
So without further ado on to the music the mix of personal rhymes and his ability to carry a tune really stuck out to me on this cd. The songs that stuck out were “Sending My Love” every brother should listen to this especially what’s open at 4:30a.m. and its in constant rotation on all my MP3 devices. “Gonna Be A Beautiful Night” with the talented Carlita Durand makes you feel good and look forward to a special night. “We Go Off” with the lyrically gifted Pharaoe Monch is reminiscent of 90’s hip hop two of my favorite MC’s just going for it on a really bass driving beat. “Who Loves You More” with the smooth voice Eric Roberson is a fitting end to a dope album this one will put a smile on your ladies face even after hearing it over and over again.
Phonte’s first solo effort is a must pick up an all around cd musically you can chill, clean up, two-step, or drive hours to this one your head will nod, your mind will think, and your musical soul will be fed……New Tigallo New Tigallo
