J Rawls’ father was a keen jazz enthusiastic, and his influence is more than apparent on ‘The Essence Of?’. With a lackadaisical vibe, indicative of Rawls’ home state, Ohio, the album is full of deep double basslines, sensual horns and sassy piano riffs. Rawls’ ability to get the most out of the album’s rappers without compromising his production style says a lot about his talent. Check Rubix, who flips his verbals with the dexterity of Outkast on ‘Elegy’, but with a musical canvas indicative of the hard-core east coast sound. There’s J-Live’s ‘Great Live Caper’, with it’s suffering strings and bleak Mobb Deep-esque vibe while mellifluous ‘Blue by Home Skill features live sax from Charles Cooper. It’s all so effortless, and utterly captivating. There are a lot of things going against the album though. It’s on an independent.
