Romance

I'd like to meet:

Romance doesn’t pull any punches when he offers his take on the current state of R&B. “Rhythm and Blues is lacking storytellers and also lacking music you can live to instead of just listen to,” the talented 19 year-old dancer/singer/songwriter Ro, then states; name checks that influence him and keeps him motivated, He states solo artist and a couple of outstanding groups, by the names of" Shai, Gerald Levert, Usher, Ginuwine, R. Kelly and Guy, Jodeci, and Keith Sweat but; Lately, it seems hip-hop has been rebirthing a couple of great storytellers and they know who they are". It’s time to show that R&B is a lot more than just gentle and smoothing music or just a up tempo beat and, That’s the real message I’m trying to exspress threw my music and I won’t settle for less only more.”While such a statement may seem like a bold proclamation from the fresh-faced newcomer, the West Point Mississippian native does more than back it up with his up coming album. The buzz-of fans and the loud screams of uncountable fans and spotlights just brings more talent and the drive out. The diverse influences range from the heartfelt soul of Teddy Pendagrass to the provocative street poetry of rap icon Tupac Shakur; Romance states". “My sound is ow; what can i say old school soul with a lot more poetry feel ing and also, a little mix of hip-hop and i got to have that in there,” explains Romance. “If I had to give it a name I would call it ‘Poetic Soul.’ Nowadays the ‘hood has little to live to but, a lot to just listen to within R&B. I want my music to be the soundtrack to peoples lives and beyond.”Indeed, an ambitious Romance is poised to live up to such lofty aspirations. The hypnotic first-single “5-4-3” produced by J Love and Ro his self, finds Ro offering the age-old tale of a man care'n more about his music and career status, than his family and the thing that is really important. On the title track “5-4-3,” Romance gives listeners a glimpse of his life and heartbreakes, lines like “5 months 4 weeks girl and 3 days, last time I said I love you I went away; visualizing you, cause baby i love you; why did it have to come to this for me to run back to you”The poetic single “Why” builds on an 80’s smooth groove feeling, completes with soulful piano keys and lush strings as Romance pushes to get some questions answered by women, that men have needed to know for the longest. The bass-heavy hardened blues of “Duffal Bag” (featuring dirty south rhyme royalty "Lady Cheeno") is a two-fisted anthem of ghetto empowerment. And on “Riding Insane,” lady Cheeno is backed by a swinging, club-driven break beat as she murders the rap game long side Romance: Romance and Lady Cheeno's team work is what can i say;"Outstanging” and there is nobody toping Romance and lady Cheeno or should we say “Unique" and soon to be one of the best R&B/Rap groups and solo artist listed! Whatever they do you can be sure it's coming with heat. By; Chris Volts
