The sound of a saxophone or saxophones is so soothing to the ears and that with the bass guitar, guitar, trumpet, drums and the keyboard make a sweet sound called Jazz! This Jazz is more than you momma's variety because they find a smooth way to mix it with Hip Hop and Soul.

Chris (Trumpet/Keyboard) and Wes (Drums) "Philly" Lowery are the Supa Brothers the group's name refers to and they are joined by: Kwame Hall (Alto Sax), Lawrence Clark (Tenor Sax), Pakeso Young (Guitar) and Aaron Bumpus (Bass).   Kaz The Lace, Thai and Phat Lace also add vocals to four of the eight tracks and the music lends itself to the street stories the artists are speaking! This is not to say the music isn't divine enough to stand on its own because not the case! The instruments are more than enough to hold it down!

I particularly like "Deep (Take A Look At The World)" featuring Kaz, The Lace, "Philli-Izms", "Love Jawn (Remix)" and "Sunsets", a track that stands out because of the strong guitar play that is wrapped through out the song!

This a nice piece to do work (as I'm doing now) and also the sound isn't mundane. It reminds me of the early Roots works.just a little! I hope these performers continue to grow with their sound, which is already of a polished nature! It's good to see the blend of two of the greatest story and emotion telling genres from time to time and it's something that should never go away! This doesn't feel like a product someone is hustling on the streets but one you could get at a major store.   I look forward to getting a copy of High Street Vol. 3 and back to Vol. 1.

I'll give the album 4 GeoGlobes!
