Wolverhampton emcee Soloman Gehazi and London producer Termite join forces to bring you a thirteen track album that is guaranteed to satisfy the needs of the most discerning Boon Bap fan. ‘Gehazimite’ really is something special with some superb solo tracks and features a string of talented UK guests including Stakka Lyrics, Hot Rox from Lost Alliance, Jae Sosa, D7, Radical, The Praying Mantis, Tommy Oliver and well respected scratch deejay Jabba Tha Kut. This is UK Hip-Hop at its best and yet another solid release from the Midlands.
The long player really does impress as it showcase the skills and flows of Soloman Gehazi’s distinctive style. The way he executes his clever wordplay is complimented by intricate wordplay and excellent lyrical punch-line abilities. Production throughout the album is from Termite, a producer who is known for his diverse style. He flips all styles here from the more hard-hitting bangers to more soulful blessed out grooves. Together the combination is deadly and his beats act as the perfect soundscape for ‘Gehazimite’.
The album features the single and video track ‘Harsh But Fair’ as well as the hugely popular ‘Verbal Enforcer 1.5’. Tracks such as ‘Dreams’ are more conceptual, showing Soloman Gehazi’s massive talent to write good songs. The politically charged ‘Don’t Trust’ and hard hitting deep lyrics on Truthful perspectives that will have you thinking on various issues, and the next video track ‘Euroclydon’ featuring Radical, The Praying Mantis and D7 is also included. This well rounded album impresses from start to finish, make sure you take time out to grab this.
