Colin Munroe - Scars N Stars
Artist: Colin Munroe
Featuring: Kendrick Lamar , Ab-Soul
Producer: Colin Munroe
Album: Unsung Hero
Label: EMI Music
Over the past year or so the TDE crew has been rock solid when it comes to collaborations. Collectively they’ve put in work with Dr. Dre, Macklemore, 50 Cent and countless others. So it should come as no surprise that Canadian crooner Colin Munroe recruited TDE spitters Ab-Soul and Kendrick Lamar for Unsung Hero mixtape inclusion Scars N Stars. The Unsung Hero stand out selection is quite unique to say the least, featuring Munroe’s wispy vocals and distinct production, a distant-sounding Lamar on the hook, and last but certainly not least there’s Ab-Soul with his momentous 16. Die-hard Kendrick fans will likely be a little perturbed by the absence of a verse from the emcee on Scars N Stars, but I’m pretty sure that Ab-Soul’s stellar effort will far make up for it. Unsung Hero was released on Tuesday, September 4 and is currently available for free stream and download on DJBooth.

This is OK... Not really feelin this much. Too Whimsical for me. The 16-bars sound somewhat forced on this beat at the end by Ab...

love this cut. Wish the beat would've been mastered better, and do wish ab's vocals would've been mixed a bit more 2 sound more crips over all the synths but overall its a beautiful song.

Yeah, I also wish we would have been given a verse from Kendrick, though his presence on the hook is still somewhat powerful. I am a huge fan of Colin's work, but I agree that the mix on the record is off.

A very noisy track from Colin Monroe who usually has some quality work. Of course the TDE feature baited me into high expectations but I can't really get into it.
