Down South

Richmond, Virginia-based rappers Shawn J-Period and SODA (ably assisted by DJ Myorr) combined an absolute mixture of jazz, funk, reggae, bluegrass and salsa on the debut recordings for Atlantic. The simple, lolling rhythms demonstrated intriguing but as well insubstantial within their own to present the mixture of truth/party designs, despite production knowledge in the Beatnuts, T-Ray yet others. Nevertheless, the promotional one, ‘Southern Ease and comfort’, using a visitor vocal by label mates Jomanda, was solid. Rather than getting focused on the alcoholic beverage, it was dealt with to their previous locale, the trio having delivered over to NY. Down South acquired produced in 1990 when Pop and J-Period, who are initial cousins, fulfilled Myorr at senior high school. Myorr acquired formerly worked within a lowly placement at Def Jam, and it had been his cable connections that resulted in them putting your signature on with Atlantic.
