ghostpoet. where do i start with this talent. ridiculously incredible would be an understatement. i first discovered obaro ejimiwe's 'peanut butter blues & melancholy jam' album around march last year and have been in adoration with him ever since. having the pleasure to see him live at beacons festival, bumping into him during julio bashmore's set and stupidly making a fool of myself after him saying he recognised me; i can truly say the adoration has increased. his set was amazing, and i underestimated his passion in live performances. the lyrics and persona he holds, keeps him above the 'typical' rapper and really makes himself an icon. this particular song- the last on his album, has an exceptional progression (live was beyond words) and is bound to send shivers. unlike most 'rappers' he adds in the special electro-hop, keeping him firmly and perfectly away from typical 'mainstream' rappers. a special man worth keeping an eye on.
