Phashara - Sunshine
Artist: Phashara
Producer: Phashara (of Beatmonstas)
Album: Pathways
Label: Beatmonstas Entertainment, LLC.
Back in September of 2009, Chi-town’s Beatmonstas reminded us that hip-hop is more than just Beats and Rhymes on their provocative, politically-charged Booth debut. On his first solo feature (and latest B-side), group member Phashara serves up something a little mellower, explaining that he wants nothing more than to spend his life soaking in the bright Sunshine... well, that and an end to the Iraq War, not to be at the mercy of a privileged upper class, safety for his family and, hey, a little spending money certainly wouldn’t hurt. Phashara’s verses may be chock full of incisive commentary on serious issues, but the artist’s laid-back, guitar-laced production and easygoing hook are perfect vibe out material. The result is a head-noddable summer jam for the conscious set… or a conscious joint for lovers of warm weather? Call it what you will but, if you’re impressed by Phashara’s skills on the mic and behind the boards, you’ll most definitely want to keep it locked for all the latest on his forthcoming street album, Pathways, which has yet to receive a solid release date.

Sometimes it takes me, and our staff, several listens before we give a song submission the thumbs up for a feature on our homepage. Phashara had me convinced about 15 seconds into the song. No long, drawn-out intro - just straight into the heart of the record. I'm a big fan.

Exactly what @DJ Z said, on my ipod before I even finished listening to the song. Pretty much sums up this record. I like it.

As a L.A. resident, I know all about sunshine, and while this isn't "west coast," it's exactly the kind of cut I'd play while driving down La Cienega on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Good time.
Is it just me, or does he sound like Bun B a little bit? |
