ForteBowie Something About #Bowie

Finally, after a grip of leaks, videos and other advance sounds, I'm proud to help present Something About #Bowie, the latest project from the homey ForteBowie. Dude's got a lot of style - he knows how to flip styles from rappin' to singin', and while he spends time sangin' to (and about) them females, but knows how to represent his part of the world (ATL, shawty). I could go on and on and on and on and on about #SAB, but really, you need to just peep it. Brilliant, moody, riding music.

ForteBowie "Impala"

ForteBowie "Impala": Before we drop Something About #Bowie, homey wanted to leak one more track, and this is some summertime afternoon lovin' kind of shit. I imagine it's more something to grip wood grain wheels to, but that Friendly Fires jack has a different kind of flavor to it. One that you need to caress a chick down to. Maybe it's a backseat lovin' jawn. Whatever it is, it's dope, and shows Bowie's sangin' as well as spittin'. #SAB drops tomorrow (July 8th).

ForteBowie ft. Stanza "Alive"

ForteBowie ft. Stanza "Alive": Here’s a leak from Bowie’s Something About #Bowie which is due out on Friday, July 8th. Alongside Stanza, Bowie gets introspective, showing how easy it can be to express oneself in rhyme form over tough beats, and how banding together in the name of music can invigorate others. They say music one of the true driving forces – sounds can make people feel happy, sad, triumphant, disturbed and plenty more, emotionally. A lot of us use this shit to escape with, and Bowie is a perfect conductor for that train.

[preview] ForteBowie Something About #Bowie

ForteBowie's Something About #Bowie drops on the 8th of July, aka next Friday. Up above is the sultry woman-cover for the project. After the jump is the back cover, with the full tracklist. Big up to Bowie; this project is going to be the truth. Here are a few tracks that have already leaked:

ForteBowie ft. Aleon Craft "Decatur"

ForteBowie ft. Aleon Craft "Decatur": Second single from Something About #Bowie finds Bowie and ATL's own Aleon Craft sending some love to one of ATL's havens. No big booty bassline anthems here - just a down-home guitar and some subtle percussion. Tracks like this have worked well for both artists, so I'm not surprised they linked up for this anthem. See, rappers, you can praise your city without an Auto-Tune'd T-Pain hook!

ForteBowie "3 Stax Back"

ForteBowie "3 Stax Back": Love how Bowie flips the "____ Back" craze that the MMG started, asking for Andre3000 to come back and save the ATL Hip-Hop scene from the "trap". Plus, he used the beat from "Spottieottiedopaliscious". 3 Stacks ain't been around for a bit, but when he does rear his head, he merks shit. I'd be up for his return. Something About #Bowie is due out July 8th, and will be presented by Refined Hype, Donuts And Milk and RTD.

ForteBowie "The Night Out"

ForteBowie "The Night Out": What's funny about me is, while I fuck with Odd Future more than most, I never really got into Frank Ocean (I remember him from MellowHype's "Hell" before anything else), so I'm kind of discovering him through these freestyles and remixes I'm hearing. Bowie, who likes to release music in milestones, threw this one in my inbox the other night when he hit his 600th follower on twitter (@fortebowie). This non-Something About #Bowie composition is over Frank's "Novocane", which is getting dumb burn on the radio. Forte takes the obvious late night creep flair of the beat and crafts a track about encountering a female during a night out. You can see it, like a Zenith. Crispy quick visual shit. By the way, Something About #Bowie will be presented by Refined Hype, Donuts & Milk and rockthedub. More deets on the release date and such should be rollin' out next week.

ForteBowie "The Thesis"

ForteBowie "The Thesis": I'd like to hit you with a little exclusive from the nigga Bowie, who has asked rockthedub to be one of the presenters of his Something About #Bowie project. I heard about six or seven cuts from it yesterday, and my gosh - this shit is ridic. Dude's style is just intoxicating - he knows the right beat to rock to, and once he gets in the pocket, it's over - he owns that shit. This cut rides a slow funk groove, and he just drops some slick shit over it. With each line, each bar, each progression, you get more into the track. Not too many MCs have that power, to ride a beat and make a beat excel, but this shit right here, nigga? Proper introduction for those who might not be up on neph.

ForteBowie "Sephora's Song"

ForteBowie "Sephora's Song" (prod. by ForteBowie): The nigga I just got introduced to as Daddy Nino has abandoned that name, and is now going by a moniker he had been using, ForteBowie. I’m kind of mad – I loved how this track started. I’m a fan of cats using one particular sound and really showing how you can make a riddim off of it through repetition. I was NOT upset at realizing that Bowie could actually sing! On this, he tries to win over Sephora with a pretty sweet song for her. Almost feel like I shouldn’t be listening to this. Feels too real. Maybe that’s why this won’t be found on Something About #Bowie, which drops on the 1st of June. I can only hope he flips both sides of his musical talents.
