While we’re on the subject of upcoming releases, here’s a new one from Sol: “Stage Dive” from his forthcoming LP Yours Truly. The MC’s trio of Dear Friends EPs (which you can grab for free at his website) have kept fans busy for the last two years or so, and now Sol is set to drop the main event on 1.20.12. In the increasing tradition of publicly-subsidized album production, a Kickstarter campaign is ongoing. More from the Press:
Here is “Stage Dive” (prod. Nima Skeemz), the first single off my upcoming album, Yours Truly. Serving as an introduction to those who may not be familiar with me, “Stage Dive” focuses on a return to the fundamental sounds of hip-hop while also showcasing smooth melodies and, of course, me rapping my ass off…. The album comes out on January 20th, 2012 with a release show at Neumos in Seattle, WA. The release of “Stage Dive” marks the halfway point ($3k of the $6k goal) of my current Kickstarter campaign to fund Yours Truly.
