TEASING YOU SOFTLY WITH THIS SONG >>>
Weekly Volcano scribe Zach Powers interviewed Tacoma emcee John Crown for this week's issue, which hits the South Sound streets this Thursday. Crown recently released his first project, an EP entitled Before I Wake You Up.
"It's a precursor to John Crown the emcee," he told Powers. Here's an excerpt from Powers' feature story:
The songs are not brand new. For roughly a year in 2007-08, Crown was one of Tacoma's busiest live performers, and while he removed himself from the scene for three years to give his full attention to his newborn son and escape the politics of local hip-hop, he still felt as though the songs he wrote at that time deserved to come out before his new material.
"It's the not the best quality music, but it's a period of my life that I enjoyed," he explains. "I hope it's good enough for people to want to hear more."
Powers will dive deeper into Crown's achievements and the EP in Thursday's Weekly Volcano. Until then, we have uploaded the song "The Lilly" from Before I Wake You Up for your enjoyment. Check it out in this post's sidebar.
