BIRMINGHAM! Please request "Push Back" @ (205) 741-0957 NOW!An energetic performer whose love of spoken word somehow led [him] to rap, Chris Doakes is the rapper that you need in your lifeClevah Jones. Born in Birmingham, AL, raised in the hood, this twenty one year old, believes in transformation. Never having much of anything but love from his folks, a gift from God with words, and a quick smile, he believes that anything you get in life is more than you had and he intends to get as much as his talent will allow.His music isnt that get-crunk-in-the-club type of rap, but the kind of rap that makes you sit back and not only listen to the complex track, but to his lyrics as well. Chronicling his life from a smart little boy without a father who used to make himself appear dumb just so he could fit in, to a poor boy who used to boost radios out of cars he parked while working as a valet, to a college student who ate Ramen Noodles and Ritz crackers for lunch and dinner everyday, to a frustrated artist trying daily to perfect his craft, Chris Doakes opens up his heart and pours it on each record. Listening to him is like reading a journal of his thoughts, fears, regrets, and experiences.
With tracks the ladies will love like New Home and Just Tonight, the ones the fellas will want to shake yo house with they speakers like Just Like You and the summer anthemDJ Stikuhbush, Push Back, not to mention Thang Thang and Dont Be Scared the younger crowds will rock, this album reaches the masses without sugar coating the issues. Although satirically sarcastic like Kanye, ladies man smooth like LL, and prolifically sexy like Common, Chris Doakes is a young man with big dreams and an even bigger determination to succeed, a talented artist who absorbs a wide range of music and melds them together to create something uniquely his own.
