Apollo Brown (Detroit) and Skyzoo (Brooklyn) combine for the new album ''The Easy Truth.'' Soulful, classic, head nodding Detroit boom-bap productions lays the foundation for Brooklyn tales that are part middle Americana and part Reasonable Doubt. From childhood tales to police brutality, inner city dealings to NY ambitions, this is the world the way Skyzoo sees and know it, with a sounscape that truly brings those emotions to life. Apollo Brown & Skyzoo talked about doing this album since they first toured Europe together years ago. The fans wanted it. The artists wanted it. It was inevitable the way it happened. Organic even. Recorded in Detroit, there is a little extra dirt and grit in the mix, while keeping the sound big enough to suit Skyzoo's Brooklyn tales. Relatable stories and honest lyricism. Add to that special guests Patty Crash, Joell Ortiz, Westside Gunn, Conway, and Stalley. The Red Bull Big Tune Detroit Champion is at his best on ''The Easy Truth'' while Skyzoo takes the storytelling to new heights. This is one for the culture. (Cd comes with free download card).
