CJ Folds "Love at War: Mr. Lonely"

Alright, time to stare at the ceiling and let loose a thug tear. CJ Folds has personally caught me by surprise with this new release of “Love at War: Mr. Lonely”, a 16 track album that hands out emotional lumps with every song. Accompanied by his Label Mates including Eli $tones, Aremite, Jordyn Sade, and Langston, CJ Folds gives me what I actually admire about today’s modern sound of the heartbroken youth: melodic genius and performance. Throughout this Album, you will be forced to feel what he feels; with the rasp of a country/rock singer, an ear for a beat selection that consists of the versatile use of string instrumentation and background vocals, an undistracting use of bass, and the chemistry between him and his features, You will begin to loathe your imaginary ex...yup, I said it!

The running themes of “Love at War: Mr. Lonely” include disappointment, solitude, the lack of communication, and the desire to elevate emotionally. “So Far Gone” sets the tone with a minimalistic beat meant to showcase Folds' vocals and the depth of pain in his lyrics, “We can't keep goin no more. I done tried too long, what for? All that you did for me, I wasted my energy, Lord, what did you send to me, I’m so gone...” Geez….. The Title Track, “Mr. Lonely'' is next and honestly after the intro, there's no way to recover. With the title and the chorus being a call back to Bobby Vinton’s heavily remixed and referenced 1965 single “Mr. Lonely,” Folds is seen as a soldier of change who has stationed himself away from his norm (city, friends, habits) and as a result, experiences the effects of his choice, “And this is exactly how it go down…” Skipping down to track #9, Folds expresses his longing for companionship and affection on “Somebody,” which is a slight contrast to the contentment that he had shown in the start, Folds blatantly admits to needing what he had lost and further continues on to a rollercoaster of emotions. Tell me how YOU feel about “ Love at War: Mr. Lonely ” Milwaukee.

Cj Folds - Hate You ft. Eli Stone (Video)

Guess CJ Folds is leaving all that sugar coating sh*t in 2020, because baby girl he made it clear he “HATES YOU”.

Awwwww, now don’t be heartbroken. We have all had those moments. Love so hard till the point you become tainted and have to let it go. But before you get permanently put on the chopping block you now have to play this song! Lol

It's crisp. The visuals are clean. The mood is tragically hilarious and man don’t we love a good slight dis song. Eli Stones falls through with a quick few bars to keep on speed. Much respect because most of the time the feature doesn't even stay on topic anymore! 

This is a must watch!

As the old heads always told us “Keep Your heart (3 stacks) keep your heart).

Cj Folds - Daddy’s Girl

cj.jpg

Our first quarantine break this year really changed the lives for everyone, especially the parents of our youth. It’s been a challenge and it’s still an ongoing process. I really want to commend all the parents who have been juggling careers while still making sure their children are still receiving their education. I’ve seen a lot of y’all really step up, and from people like me who don’t have kids yet, I just want to say you are all appreciated. However, it’s not been easy for everyone, a lot of dad's weren’t given the opportunity to see their children during this time, and it has not always been by choice. There are many active father’s involved in their children’s lives, and if they genuinely want to raise these kids I think it’s unfair that bitter emotions can drive wedges between the relationships that are trying to be built. Some people have lost their father’s, and that type of pain never fully heals. I think that’s why I was able to vibe with this song from Cj Folds, Daddy’s Girl.

Cj Folds managed to create a hip-hop ballad showcasing the love and affection between father and daughter, and now the daughter’s father is no longer around. You hear the sadness in his voice as he describes the changes the daughter is going through since he is unable to be near her. She is his princess, and you can feel the pain he is experiencing. I know in times like these nobody wants to keep hearing about the negative sh*t going on, but with emotions like this we just simply ignore them.

Rap does not always have to be aggressive, and Cj Folds proves this with a soft song with a hard impact. From the catchy but heartbreaking chorus and the love language given in between the song’s metaphors, this song made me appreciate my own father more, and all that he has done for me since reaching adulthood. With the beautiful visual accompanied with this song, I can’t wait to hear more of what Cj Folds has in the future. Shout out to all the Dads out there who truly love those babies and R.I.P to the ones we’ve lost.

We love to see it.

Cj Folds - The Summer Pack EP

It's still summer right?

Well if your not quite ready to get back to reality, we have some music to keep you in the mood. Cj Folds has dropped “The Summer Pack” EP, in our inbox, and we must say . . . We ain't mad at’em. This pack features artist J.Dot, Eli $tones, Kevin Hues, and Bobby Kennedy. The production is light, synthesized, vibey, with that new age calibration of smooth hood aura and R&B. There is really not one word for it. It’s a mix. 

Our favorite track is Vibe, because of course we are always trying to catch one. But the production layered with the cadence is doing something for us. 

So check out “The Summer Pack” EP, and let us know what you really think. Should we be bumping this with the sun roof down riding around the city sipin’ mango smoothies with bae or nah?

Cj Folds - Pour It Up (feat. J. Dot)

Cj Folds record “Pour it Up”, featuring J.Dot, is definitely going on my summer playlist for 2k19. This songs sounds like it should be on the radio at this point. The audio is clear, the melody is smooth and each bar goes in. The chorus is extremely catchy and hype! I listened to it at least five times before I was repeating the chorus word for word. Hopefully all of you are going to stay loyal throughout the summer, but if you’re not looking for any love, this is your theme song. Now I don’t really know too much about Cj Folds, but I know good music when I hear it and he has it. Can’t wait to hear more from this artist, we’ll be on the lookout for you Folds.
