Buggs-BlacksheepMag

Releasing on 10th December 2014, the new album “Scattered Thoughts of an American Poet” by Cincinnati hip hop artist Buggs tha Rocka includes production by Hop Trax, Sal Dali, !llmind & Jake One, and a variety of featured artists including Tanya Morgan, Chuck Inglish, MOOD and Piakhan.

A total of 19 tracks appear on the release, and the UK’s online magazine Blacksheep has just run the rule over it.

Offered a 4 star rating, their contributor Andrew Kay opens “Refreshingly, the title of his album refers to the official skill of rapping: being a poet….the thing that strikes you is the astonishingly diverse production and changes in mood and atmosphere that occur from track to track. Scattered might be how he’s sprinkled his lyrics over affected beats, but the strategy works.”

Look out for the launch of a new video for the track “Angel of Death featuring Piakhan and produced by Hop Trax next week as part of a special feature with a British online magazine. There will also soon be a video launched documenting the Reflection Eternal reunion show which took place in Cincinnati’s Rhinegeist Brewery in October. Meantime check the teaser video for the album
