“Yo, son, this thing we call Hip Hop, ya know, is all about location” 

Powerful words that reached me in the depth of my own “SOL” (pun intended)

Sol Infinite, the emcee of all emcees, with an undeniable depth of intelligence superseding the most common of rappers, has forged his way into our stereos with eclectic lyrics and sounds. I believe strange is an even more descriptive adjective to express the nature of Sol’s work. Strange in the sense of its uniqueness for sound. While most emcee’s are straddling the fence of relativity and creativity, Sol crosses the fence and dwells happily in the land of unchartered creativity, not at all desiring to be relative to the public. This though does not mean that we cannot still relate.

I appreciate Sol’s personality much more when I listen to his art. His ability to capture his scattered thoughts into a symphony of sound, is entirely impressive. The “Watch The Growth” tour was inaugurated on the reality, that there lacks authentic personality in hip hop…or if it does exist that we may have possibly ignored it, so we pursue it.

Sol, definitely is the “personality” among us…he makes me adore Hip Hop again, he embodies the impossibilities, and articulates that in an uncanny way. 

“Within, Destination” Sol’s current double disc Lp, is a direct reflection of thee above synopsis given. Each song calls us to a different place. “Visions of a Better Day” gives us the power to hope again. “Can’t Believe These Dreams” are for the “dreamers” who are wide awake. Overall, “Within, Destination”, in itself bears the culture of “counter-culturalism.” It expresses how to escape the trendiness robbing music of its authenticity as a language spoken within us, intended to guide us on our journey towards a not so obvious destination.

Sol Infinite is synonymous with Growth…So Watch Him!
