GWN (Group Without A Name) - Shut Up
Producer: Group Without A Name
Album: None (Promo Single)
Label: BOMDU Ent.
There are few subjects on which more ink has been spilled, and more verses sung, than love. And despite it all, we haven’t come one iota closer to understanding it. Recognizing that words have to end somewhere, Washington, D.C.-based jazz/soul/R&B crew GWN (Group Without a Name) offer a novel solution to romantic uncertainty on their second Booth feature: “Shut Up, just stop thinking… be like Nike and just do.” On this freshly-released promo single, Izzy, FL Song, Lady K, Mookie, Jay and Eliot Seppa offer listeners an object lesson in dealing with matters of the heart, vocally depicting a couple on the brink of commitment but unsure how to proceed. As you might guess from the jam’s pro-action, anti-talk theme, it’s the music that’s the focus here; from the glittering piano chords and soaring flute lines to the restless yet understated rhythm section, the record boasts a level of musicianship rarely heard in modern urban music. Digging this preternaturally smooth selection? Stay tuned—while Shut Up isn’t currently attached to any forthcoming project, we’ll keep you supplied with all the latest news and tunes from these talented DMV denizens.

Remember the difference between being different to sell records and being different because you're supremely talented in areas not fully appreciated by the mainstream listening public? Yeah, well, that doesn't really matter here. I doubt GWN give two sh*ts if the mainstream likes their work. Their jazzy, soulful and very personal music is quite enjoyable and most importantly authentic. More, please.

GWN is going to be a serious problem in the game. I have not heard one decent track from them, they have all been GREAT. I am always glad when I get their music in my inbox.

Z your definitely right when you say that their music is not fully appreciated by the mainstream listening public. But your also right when you said that they probably don't care.

This is pretty grown and sexy right here. Nice music and family friendly too. It's OK...not sure when and if I'll listen to it again.
