[Project Review] Amarae – ‘Sessions’

You know a good album when you hear one. The word “good” is actually an understatement for Amaré’s debut album, Sessions. This is the third solo release from the Nedlog Era Camp.
The second that Amaraé’s album flows over the speakers, you know that you are in for a treat. Amaraé, along with Spivey and Chickalo collectively produced one of the hottest and cleanest indie albums out right now.
The introduction to this album is entitled, “I Am A Giant,” and it sets the stage for what is to come. In the audio clip, Diddy is performing a monologue that speaks on the ambition of a man. “I’m a giant! A giant surrounded by ants! Ants can’t even understand what a giant is talking about.” Wow! This line is absolutely great and foreshadows what is to come on the whole entire album.
The next song on the lineup is, “Teleportation 3.” This song delivers as much fire as the first one. Spivey produced a song that is full of lyrical genius. Amaraé spits about his real life issues and struggles of being in school. So many young people can relate to the struggles of trying to stay in school but constantly being under fire and pressure. The artist clearly communicates that at the end of the day, grinding was the most important thing in his life.
For the next song, “Track 2000,” listeners may experience déjà vu. At the beginning of the track there is an infamous audio clip from the classic movie, “ATL.” The conversation heard is from a scene in the movie when one of the main characters, Ant, is in the process of selling drugs to one of his customers. Even though this clip may not be a really big deal to the average person, the tactics that Amaraé is using will definitely make people remember every single one of his songs.
Throughout the whole entire album each song is different and has its own character. Amaraé demands that the music scene respect him because of the work that he has put in. Make sure that you keep an eye out for Amaraé because he is definitely on the rise–he will rise fast.
