Sacramento based emcee Calcei's new album "American
Splendor" was inspired by the ongoing pandemic and its sociopolitical
ramifications. The "American" side is political and dystopian. Cynicism
and malaise drip from the biting lyrics.
However,
the "Splendor" side is lighter, more humorous, and whimsical. The
dichotomy in tone and content mirrors the experience of many people
during these trying times.
Production is provided
by frequent collaborators Olos, Pimpernel Jones, Monplacebo, and
Beatnick Classics. Mike E Eyebrowz also contributes sonically. All cuts
and scratches are performed by Pimpernel Jones. PJ also mixed and
mastered the project.
