"There is one word to describe Keplyn,..... Poetic
Listening to this album is like going out to the park and enjoying the subtlety of nature. What really makes his album stand out, is his incorporation of music elements from African drum beats to new age jazz harmonies. In some of his songs, Keplyn does more reciting in a whispering, soft-spoken manner than singing, which is very unique. This CD may not be "HOT" for some, but it's something that is worth enjoying out of the ordinary."

"How persuasive is the music of Keplyn! What power of proof! One must demonstrate proof endlessly: to accept anything in art on faith alone is unworthy and tiresome. Keplyn knows so well how to estimate the value of a man and how with the help of music to bring out in him the most remote possilities. Buy this album."

"maybe he sounds a bit like gil-scott, but that's it! his label compares him to that poet and to the likes of isaac hayes and other soul and neo-soul artists... S - T - R - E - T - C - H - I - N' thangs a bit... however, the brotha gots a good voice and he on that ol' smooth-tryna-talk-some-woman-outta-her-goodies vibe...
but if you are familiar with the CD from 'phat cat players' and the song they had "sundress", then i think this is that exact same guy! and if you like that particular song, then you gonna love this whole damn album because EVERY song has that exact same feel/vibe to it: steady low beats/lush smooth talkin... the atmosphere it provides is the main reason it gets a five star rating, the material isnt exactly groundbreakin, but when you need to get your mack-hussle on, then this is the disc you want playin...."
