Bad News Brown {Reign}

I’ve been duped. This video was actually listed under the official video for Kanye West’s “Power” on YouTube. Knowing full well Kanye’s video hasn’t dropped yet, I clicked anyway expecting to see a fan vid. Instead what I found was a Haitian/Canadian/singer/rapper/harmonica player by the name of Bad News Brown. The little white lie turned about to be a pretty good marketing campaign.

The track above is called “Reign,” below is “Born To Sin” which I really dig. After listening to all of the tracks available on his official website, I can only co-sign these two. The others… “meh.” The differences between “Born to Sin” and “Touch Her Body,”or “Reign” and “Soul Clap” are not even bi-polar, it’s more like they were created by two all together different people. And frankly, after hearing the first two tracks, the second two were a monumental let down.
