Search - 9th Wonder :: 9th's Opus: It's A Wonderful World Music Group Volume 1

ALBUM DESCRIPTION: 9th s Opus: It s A Wonderful World Music Group Volume I is the most anticipated compilation project featuring the blog-heavy sounds coming from two nondescript camps called Jamla and The Academy. Until now. Artists whose joint home is It s A Wonderful World Music Group, founded by Grammy Award-winning producer 9th Wonder, form a roster of the most talented artists North Carolina has seen since the Justus League reined the scene nearly a decade ago. Listeners will be refreshed by the grittiness of Winston Salem s Big Remo, Rapsody s sharp lyricism, TP and Actual Proof s witty wordplay, Skyzoo s classic New York flow, and GQ s GQ style. Tyler Woods is the reminder that R&B wouldn t be what it is today without North Carolina. This compilation album represents the resurgence of a powerful movement that was started in North Carolina with contributions from 9th Wonder. His artists are the manifestation of that continued momentum. PRODUCTION: 9th Wonder, E. Jones, Khrysis, Kash, Fatin.
