San Diego rap prodigy Jonny Dee has given Urban Radar an exclusive track-by-track, ahead of his forthcoming album ‘The Human Experience’. The album, which is due out tomorrow (May 12), is about a human’s journey of self-discovery and finding happiness. Sonically, the record brings together a diverse range of influences, from Kid Cudi and De La Soul to The Beatles and Bowie. Below, he breaks down the album track-by-track, providing a deeper understanding of ‘The Human Experience’.
Tracklist Breakdown:
Track 01: Rhythm of my Life
This song is guide to finding freedom from everyday stresses, through self-love. Everything is in Rhythm.
Track 02: Ticketless Trip
The story about “waking up” in a new world where everything’s brighter, happier, and more free.
Track 03: In the Sound
This is a “good times” song. It’s about going out, trying to have a good time, and getting lost in a moment.
Track 04: A Blue Submarine
After the party scene from “In the Sound”, we dive deep into a vibe far away from society, government, and control. A safe place, where we don’t have to worry or hurt anymore.
Track 05: Feedback
A composition about diving into something you love, to the point that the rest of the world turns into “white noise” or “Feedback”.
Track 06: Luna’s Lullaby
A conversation between me and the moon, Luna. This song questions the everyday decisions we make as a human race. The way we treat each other, lead each other, hide behind fake personas, etc.
Track 07: Summer’s Song
A song about a love lost for a larger cause. I discusses the troubles of letting someone go, along with the reasons for why it ‘has’ to happen sometimes.
Track 08: Live Thursday Night Groove
Then we close the door on the lost love, and step into a scene that has a whole new groove. This is a song about letting of anything you’ve been holding back, feeling free, being you, and enjoying every second of it. Groovin’.
Track 09: A Ways Away
We then take the groove to a new spacey scene, far away from any type of control. A place of true freedom. It’s a unique brand of psychedelic hip-hop.
Track 10: Cosmic Poem
An electric guitar composition about finding love while completely alone. Dreaming of “the one”, before meeting them, and knowing that that love is out there.
Track 11: You
A love song. A story about the love described in Cosmic Poem. Looking for this love, where ever she may be, while at the same time describing her and few ladies that could have potentially been “her”.
Track 12: The Man Who Fell from the Sky
A ‘man’ fell out of the sky, because he was intrigued by the troubles of the people on earth. His plan was to attempt to help and understand them. He tells the people earth “You’ve got the stuff, the key to everything you want, and feel you need, is in you”. He creates a guideline accompanied by funky, jazzy, & spacey grooves. He titled it “The Human Experience”
Jonny Dee’s ‘The Human Experience’ is out tomorrow (May 12).
