Search - Profit :: American Famine

With his debut album, American Famine, Profit emerges as a powerful writer/producer/rapper.? breaking molds and setting own protocol. This multi-layered concept album, including a six-panel story board charged with haunting images, is one young man?s journey home to self-discovery and truth, and an exposé of America?s contradictions. Through his boldly honest and thought-provoking lyrics, echoing the voice of the past, present and future, Profit shares with listeners tales of his struggle and those of his people. Speaking in paradox, Profit reminds us that we ultimately share the same fate as one human race -- thus his last words on the album: "Our souls to be your shovels. Dig and you shall find us . . ." The album is also musically enticing as Profit breaks down the barriers and fuses the old with the new and the cultured with the raw. Live guitar, bass, piano, violin and trumpet also deliver a poignant yet potent mix. American Famine is a catalytic voice that will stir the hearts and minds of many.
