About Me
CHITOWN bred artist Blacknight is no stranger to the hip hop/rap game. Blacknight has been a major force on the Midwest underground scene since 1998. Bringing an innovative style of urban hip hop with a smooth flow, and inspiring lyrics over rhythmically charged beats all brought together by catchy hooks.In 2005, he released his highly acclaimed solo LP "GROWN MAN" which remained on many Chicago Area retailers "hot lists" for quite some time.The highly anticipated mixtape featured here "The Black Experience' comes hot on the heels of "Grown Man" and is an important record in the Midwest music scene. This is an ambitious effort from an MC who is passionate about both his city and his music. Spinning real life tales over top notch production, the balance of street and lyricism in these songs is impeccable, crafted carefully so the listener doesn’t get bogged down trying to hard to figure out what the MC is talking about. Instead, we're invited along on a journey through the streets of Chicago AKA Haterville, where everybody seems to be doing everything to keep each other down. It's along these lines that this album makes it's greatest strides: instead of throwing his hands in the air and accepting the inevitable, there's a legitimate sense of optimism that fuels his search for answers. By staying true to the form and to his beliefs, we get a first hand view of an MC who comes off as truly genuine.Whats good to all my people out here thats been holding Blacknight down for years.
