♠Brown Hill's album entitled 'Soul Renaissance' was created in an era of Soul music revival and is influenced by classic Soul artists such as Curtis Mayfield. The goal of Soul Renaissance was to create a timeless album with pure songs, real music, and profound lyrics. Listening to Brown Hill's music will take you back in time. 'Soul Renaissance' was designed to bridge the gap between Soul, Hip-Hop, and R&B. Brown Hill's raw and soulful voice, rough looks, and natural stage presence make this twenty-four year old singer a sensational and marketable upcoming artist.
♠Featured artists on Soul Renaissance include: Billy Preston (Fender Rhodes and co-composer on Daddy's Caddy), Morris Pleasure - EW&F (horns and horn arrangements on Unspoken Rule and Not Looking For Somebody), Baby Kain - founder of the Last Poets (Come On In (From The Rain)), Leah McCrae - daughter of George Rock Your Baby and Gwen Funky Sensation McCrae (Not Looking For Somebody).
