Basement Up - Happiness
Artist: Basement Up
Producer: DJ Element (of Brown Bag Allstars)
Album: Ubuntu
Label: Unsigned
Before it was the name of a Linux-based operating system, the Bantu word “Ubuntu” referred to an African ethic and worldview emphasizing the interconnectedness of all people. For Booth newcomers Basement Up, who borrowed the term for the title of their latest project, that principle is crucial if you want to find Happiness in today’s competitive, materialistic world. The latest single off the set finds crewmates Phorenzics, Matty Ritch and Allen Poe championing “community [and] unity,” as the path to contentment, backed by the soulful sample work of Brown Bag All-Star DJ Element. Fontaine contributes guest rhymes. For this uplifting cut and much more, check out the Frankfort, Kentucky crew’s latest LP, released this past Sunday and available here for digital purchase.

Smooth beat with cool horns by DJ Element. Smooth flows by Basement Up and Fontaine to match. I'll throw this into the rotation.

Solid track. Really can't say much more than that. I would listen to this again if it popped up in my shuffle.

I like the feel of this track. I'm just envisioning this track playing at a 90's block party or something.. Hah Basement Up delivered and so did the feature artist.
