E Reece – Concrete Steppin (CD) (2010) (FLAC + 320 kbps)

Concrete Steppin is an album from L.A.-based, Maryland-raised emcee E Reece. At a time where when there seems to be a lot of glitz, glamour, and negativity in Hip Hop, Concrete Steppin reaches out to us with a positive, organic vibe to feed your mind, body and soul.

“Once they’ve heard my music or seen my live show, I want people to believe in the power of positive music and to know that real hip hop isn’t dead.” — E Reece

Upon first listen, Concrete Steppin draws you in to its authentic soundscape. Hip Hop fans of late have been conversing more about “real Hip Hop” and what happened to the “real emcee”. Well it is clear that E Reece is from a different era; an era that we as hip hop fans grew up appreciating.

Not only does the album serve as great ear candy, its features have been strategically placed and they all serve their purpose. Guests like El Prez, Tunji, Buff1 and up and coming R&B diva Dasha not only hold their own but enhance the songs and take them to new heights. The cohesiveness of Concrete Steppin is probably one of the most notable virtues of this project, not an easy task when working with multiple producers such as Kev Brown, ProMic and Oddissee. Concrete Steppin is not only a headphone masterpiece, but a clear reminder that hip hop is alive and well.
