August 13, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- For the People by Kromwell.
This is not just a song, it's a movement.
FOR THE 99%: A look at Kromwell's New Song Ready to Inspire a Movement!
KROMWELL's latest single, "For the People" (featuring Little T, DK, and Jen Hershman), is not one of his party tracks, but rather a poetic message for the masses and the "Occupy" International movement. That is not to say the "chill vibe" isn't there, because it is very present. The hip hop side has a smooth flow coupled with a stick-in-your-head hook. "For The People" mixes hip hop, a melodic hook, and a poetic delivery of lyrics to make a point.
"For the People" begins with a take-no-prisoners journey taking on Wall Street, the government, and essentially the rich, or the 1%. The lyrics call out specifically crooked politicians and refer to "the people" as slaves to democracy. The song stops short of referring to the antagonists as savaged bastards, but is clear in its attack against those responsible for the financial crisis, ponzi schemes, and the current tax system that (according to this song) penalizes "the people" while the government and CEOs continue to reap in the cash and rewards. Music, specifically pop songs often allude or dance around subject matter, keeping a song that may be dark in meaning, light for the listener, others are straight forward. KROMWELL's work here is more the latter, a statement for those that feel lost and are having difficulty seeing a light at the end of financial crisis tunnel. The song is a rally, a protest, and a story all wrapped up into one.
"For the People" is an anthem looking to lead the 99% and the cause of an increasing movement that started in New York City and has spread across the world. The chorus "let's all run away" may represent the sinking feeling most of us feel given the current climate of the world today (it did for me on my first listen).
Artists can find inspiration from various outlets, but it takes a special person to take a hot (READ: political) topic and find a way to express their thoughts and feeling. This song does this and also bounces from frustration to optimism seamlessly. The lyrics "Teaching" and "rise up together" jumps out in the second half, offering a solution of education and power in numbers as a potential solution. Agree or not with the message of "For the People", one listen to this song and the chorus will be running through your head, check out "For the People" by KROMWELL today!
KROMWELL Lethal Industry 'DEBUT ALBUM'
Kromwell's debut album Lethal Industry is a pop/hip-hop hybrid infused with everything from pop, hip-hop, house, dub-step, rock, trance and electronica, all blending seamlessly. It boasts a unique compilation of piano work, guitar riffs, tenor and alto sax as well as many other instruments woven throughout his EP. When compiled the variation in the tracks grabs the listener and takes them on a wild musical ride.
Lethal Industry reflects on Kromwell's teenage and early adult years. The album starts off with an upbeat Brit pop inspired track entitled "When you're gone", which follows a musician who is never home long enough to please his girlfriend. The second track, switches gears with an edgy rock meets hip-hop track entitled "No Hardware" in which Kromwell reflects on the darker and more challenging days of his childhood. "Hot Body" and "Palm Bay VIP" represent the lighter side of Kromwell, with hooks guaranteed to grab the attention of any listener. Later tracks continue to surprise and please, ranging from the fast paced songs "Goin' Downtown" and "Superstar", which follow carefree individuals who's goals in life include "hitting every club in town" and "driving' around in a fancy car", to the darker, more sinister "Livin' on Top" and "Glory Us". The album ends on a hit note with an emotive piano solo.
