Bless Escro- The Blessed LP (2011)

Posted by HHB Admin on July 29, 2011 – 8:27 pm

Bless’ The Blessed LP isn’t your average Southern California recording. The soulful, summery, and experimental sounds that we familiarize with other emerging South Central LA artists are replaced with a more tough and gritty style reminiscent of New York. Despite the contrast of style versus birth location, Escro brings a a form of tenacity and spunk that, in my opinion, is much needed in LA’s new progressive and sprightly hip hop circle.

As heard on standout cuts like Discovery, Bloody Suicide, Heaven’s Step, and Verbal Blessings, Bless Escro displays unlimited lyrical prowess and an intriguing style that bubbles well over EBO‘s brazen beats. On this unveiling, Bless shows that his recipe of south central strife and tales from LA’s underbelly is the perfect inverse to the electronic/bounce-bap spirit that surrounds the palm jungle.
