Ced Hughes - What You Wanted
Artist: Ced Hughes
Featuring: Donwill (of Tanya Morgan)
Producer: Royksopp
Album: One Day We’ll Wake Up
Label: Unsigned
If there’s one thing I’ve learned from watching numerous rap hopefuls rise to prominence in the game, it’s that success is never quite what one expects. Which I suppose means that, if you pursue your dreams with the inevitability of disappointment and disillusionment in mind at all times, inner peace and fulfillment are sure to follow. Uh, on second thought, you may want to ignore my advice and follow Ced Hughes’ example; on What You Wanted, the latest release off his recent, Booth-sponsored mixtape, the ATL repper takes an optimistic yet levelheaded approach to his artistic grind, acknowledging the harsh realities of the game but showing a willingness to change and adapt as circumstances come into clearer focus. Over the spacey grooves of Norwegian electronic duo Royskopp, the freestyle series alumnus offers a down-to-earth account the conflicts that characterize the artist’s life: ambition versus the desire for security, money versus integrity, workouts versus steak and french fries…Tanya Morgan emcee Donwill guests, exposing the reality of the major-label hustle on the back. Like what you’re hearing? More awaits One Day We’ll Wake Up, available here for free download.

Royksopp hey? You've got talent my man, this beat is unique and I'm loving it. Ced Hughes has released alot of quality and diverse music lately and so far I've loved nearly everything he's released. This is a win for me.

I am going to simply agree with everyone Resident DJ Aussie_Accents (see above) wrote in his feedback. How is that for short and sweet.
