Canadian producer BigBob presents New York-based Juice Crew emcee Craig G’s new album THE PEN IS MIGHTIER, via Elite Sound International

The Pen is Mightier is an inspiring synthesis of straightforward bars & beats, the foundation of Hip Hop. This art is rooted in boom-bap rap articulated by the grand presence of Craig G’s extraordinary & polished storytelling. Each track follows respectively with a soundscape that seamlessly melds one into the other courtesy of Avant grade Hip Hop producer BigBob. This teamwork between emcee and producer is not a traditional formulaic approach.

‘Poke The Bear’ teases a classic guitar riff-heavy on the melody, which Craig G flows his speech with true stories from a seasoned person living on earth. ‘Original Recipe’ is sheerly uncomplicated, letting Craig G’s craft shine and messages flow through. ‘Asphyxia’ is menacing and thrilling. An eerie soundscape coupled with Craig G’s divisive yet common story of America. The ominous ambience continues on as we are navigated on this musical journey halfway through with ‘Contract Killer’. The droning bass line is guided by Craig G’s texturally interesting story. ‘Fight For It’ brightens up the album with a hopeful message, a perfect anthem for winning and not giving up. BigBob gets inspired by gangster movie vignettes, pairing his signature heavy drum patterns with swaying melodic strings for ‘The Disagreeables’. Craig G chronicles personal experiences with communication, unpacking a myriad of tales before he takes us on one more melancholic and agitating ride with ‘Riot’. The edgy ambience is the lead up for the victory anthem and final song, ‘Every Chance You Get’ with a heavy sonic sound of pure drum and bass heaven with sinister sound effects and crafted cuts by LDontheCut.

The continued evolution of Craig G as an emcee, with his devised word plays, expresses his hyperkinetic delivery and originality which is analogous in this work with BigBob.
