Knoblich Gardens [three]: The Blue Boat

wes gordon This album is a monster. A storytelling concept album that deserves to be heard. Incredible production and D-Sisives vivid storytelling make this album a must listen.

Kevin Jabroni D-Sisive is back and better than ever with this new concept album. It’s hard to even think of what to write as feedback to this EP because it’s so overwhelmingly incredible, where would I even begin? It’s like my favorite D-Sisive song except it’s more of a movie. I feel bad for anyone not paying attention to what he’s building right now because he’s raising the bar even higher than ever, and that’s saying something since he was already the best storytelling rapper of all time. Favorite track: The Garage Sale.

anjovi Very emotional and heartfelt window into the life of Tony. I really dug the craftsmanship on the words (colorful and charming, enough to get you involved with the very vivid tale and it's many angles).

Thanks for sharing this man! Favorite track: Tony's Hymn.

crookedfoot.personal Another amazing and top notch project Favorite track: Chandelier.

I'm proud of all of my releases. Well...the ones from 2008 and onwards [haha]. But this one? THIS...ONE? Yikes.

The story behind The Blue Boat has been living in my head for 32 years. I can still vividly remember standing at Tony's bedside completely overwhelmed by the experience. I didn't fully process what was happening, but it impacted me major. Every now and then, something would trigger a memory of Tony, and I'd be right back in his apartment on Northcliffe Blvd.

Once I started releasing more introspective-type music, Tony went from a memory to a story I had to tell. But the moment had to be perfect. And after everything I've been through over the past 8 years - it can't get any more perfect than now.

The Blue Boat isn't a conventional EP. It's unlike anything I've ever released. This is in a league of its own. It's not Hip-Hop. It's not background music at a party. The Blue Boat requires commitment, and is best experienced via headphones. You need to close your eyes, and really take the story in. Feel the words and music. I know that's a lot to ask, but I believe this story is very powerful, and has potential to shift the world.

I pray The Blue Boat gets the attention I believe it deserves, and I pray you love it as much as I do. The idea of Tony is in all of us, and it's our responsibility to make sure we don't fade out like he did.

I want to thank my brother, Muneshine, for bringing this to life with me. None of this could be done without you. I believe our lives will change as soon as this is unleashed.

I also want to thank YOU. Because without you, I'd be rapping to the walls, and this would all be pointless. I truly mean it.

I love you.
Derek

I think this might be the hardest album Buck 65 has ever made. Not an ounce of fat on it. Every single thing about it is dope. But then every single thing about King of Drums and Super Dope is dope too. Still this might be my favourite of the bunch. I'm just happy Buck is back and making all this dope ass hip hop for us. Arrrgghh it makes me so happy. beatjesus
