Jared Evan - Falling Down
Producer: !llmind
Album: Back and Fourth
Label: Zone 4/Interscope
You know how some people get freaked out when different foods on their plate touch? I have the opposite philosophy: if two things taste good side by side, they’re bound to taste even better heaped in a pile. (Yeah, I don’t get invited to many fancy dinner parties.) Freestyle alum Jared Evan knows what I’m talking about; though mixtape cut Falling Down is drastically different in mood than his last offering, the garage-rock-infused In Love With You, it finds him once again mixing disparate influences into a tasty musical casserole. Booth fave !llmind mans the boards, cooking up a Radiohead-esque blend of guitar arpeggios and moody synths as Evan undergoes a little mic therapy. Switching between sung vocals and (on the bridge) hard-hitting flows, he paints a vivid portrait of one of those days when nothing seems to be going quite right. While dark, this rap/grunge/pop/alt-rock concoction packs a cathartic punch that’ll leave fans of emotional, genre-blending jams hungry for more. If that sounds like you, be sure to grab a copy of Back and Fourth, the mixtape prelude to Evan’s full-length debut, when it hits the net in early 2011.

Its been a long day (I spent my entire afternoon driving back to Chicago), so instead of rambling on about Jared Evan being skillful, diverse, unique and talented, I'll simply suggest you re-read Richard's eloquently-written feature (see above) and press play (hopefully for the second time).

Wow. I've heard some stuff from Jared Evan before but nothing as good as this. Real talent here. He could definitely suceed in the hip-rock genre like a Kevin Rudolf, but with his own unique style. This is a radio appealing, track with solid execution and production. Nice job by Jared, and !llmind. Definitely gonna look for more from the upcoming album.

Z u are exactly correct. You can't give an explanation 2 what you just heard with words. You just gotta press play one/two more times.

This is a really great record from Jared right here. Everything fits perfectly in this record. The verses are strong and deep and very smooth. The production from !llmind is fantastic. This is a Banger, no doubt.

The fact that hes contemplating suicide is a little unsettling.
