I Present A Bio 4 the Shrt Attention Span
((The Soul Stirrer)) gained the passion to make beats from
listening to greats like Dj Premier, Jay Dilla and
Ali Shaheed Muhammed. What's Ironic is that
his sound cant be any further from those great
producers. Forever paying homage to those who
have come before him but yet realizing that the
new wave of music has to "go beyond Dilla,"
The Soul Stirrer has managed to push the enve-
lope of creativity. Blending a nostalgic potion of
raw hip hop drums with ambient keyboard/bass
melodies, these soundscapes are sure to tickle
the fickle ear drums of even your harshest
Hip Hop Snob.
The Soul Stirrer is Amero-Afro / songwriter / producer Kenneth Chambliss.
In 2004, Soul packed up and moved from native Virginia to Atlanta, where he wrote, arranged and produced several named and unamed projects including 'Design Utopia'(unreleased) and the Popular '2morrow' record with Rapper Small Eyez.

'SAMO as an alternative 2 playing art with the 'radical chic' sect on Daddy's $ funds.'

Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of the Gods. So let us celebrate the struggle!
I want music to move me. I listen to how it sounds and consume how it feels. I want it to grove my soul, wrench my heart, nod my head, or fascinate my brain. The exceptionally distinctive sounds I hear are the ones you'll see on aurgasm; they'll resound inside you as well
'People don't understand that we live in this earth too. We don't sing these songs and live in the sky. I don't have an army behind me. If I did, I wouldn't care, I'd just get more militant.
Praise for 'Somewhere, anywhere.':
''I never even thought about whether or not they understand what I'm doing . . . the emotional reaction is all that matters as long as there's some feeling of communication, it isn't necessary that it be understood.'
