Search - Various Artists :: Anthology: Urban Beats Vol. 1

In urban-speak, the poetry of the city is the landscape of bus stops, taco stands, low-wage jobs, no jobs, gangs, fast cars whipping down endless freeways, and side streets full of pot holes. This CD represents a new, glorious start for urban music. These new stars are urban poets. A barrage of great music coming from all directions hits music lovers. The artists featured are fairly new to the contemporary music scene. Nevertheless, their powerful songs inject a shot of adrenaline and excitement into a stale musical landscape. In doing so, they broaden the urban musical palette, trample existing boundaries, and take risks to achieve greatness. With their passion, polish and power these artists are destined to become the new higher standard. Their voice will be heard not just in America, but also across the world. We hope you enjoy this album.
