Spree Wilson - I Believe She's Lying
Artist: Spree Wilson
Producer: Shoeden!1
Album: The Never Ending Now
Label: Unsigned
I know, Thanksgiving was last Thursday, but I won’t be able to remember this till November 24, 2011, so here goes: I’m thankful to live in a day and age when a hip-hop artist can drop a single as weird, wild and unexpected as Spree Wilson‘s latest without worrying about alienating fans. I Believe You’re Lying, actually a cover of an ‘07 cut by heavyweight producer Jon Brion, is the ATLien’s most out-the-box offering yet, with beatsmith Shoeden!1 serving up a tweaked version of Brion’s hyperkinetic drum-n-bass backdrop as Spree shares his self-defeating (yet infectiously upbeat) reflections on a new relationship. Though everything’s going fine so far – in fact, they’ve “barely met” – he’s nonetheless convinced that, given time, the girl in question will betray his trust. If that sounds a little neurotic, well, it is… but the quirky lyrical content and catchy melody are a winning combination in my book. Enough from me – are you feeling the Evil Angel emcee/singer’s latest musical concoction? Those who answer in the affirmative can expect plenty more dope surprises on debut album The Never Ending Now, due out early next year.

I do believe that this is my first hearing from Spree Wilson..... And im not really feeling this..... Its a good song but just not my cup of tea. He kinda sounds like B.o.B. but with a different style. Im not sure if this record will have many fans.... But time will tell.

Reminds me of B.o.B. a little too much but I could picture this on the radio. It's not really my style but it could have it's audience. Chorus is catchy

Spree continues to impress me. His sound is unique and fresh, but not in a "look at me, I'm trying to be different" sorta way. I am a fan.

After a bit of a hiatus, it's great to hear Spree making music again. Lord knows we need more originality just like this, especially when it sounds so organic and natural.
And yes, it "sounds like B.o.B." in the sense that it's a Black guy with a guitar singing pop/rock, but in terms of their actual voices and styles, Spree and Bobby Ray are completely distinct.

Music lives. Great to here good songs, with creative angles. Spree Wilson will an artist to be talked about for a long time. And for those who don't know, everyone in Atlanta knows that BOB stole his shit from Spree. Spree was around way before Bobby Ray.
I digress, Great song. Thank you. |

I'm hearing more Jason Mraz than B.o.B. This is my first time hearing Spree Wilson, but I like what he's doing. Can't quite give it 5 stars.
