Hurricane Waters - Citizen Cope


A very underrated talent. Citizen Cope has been flirting with stardom for a few years now. His awesome Bullet and A Target was sampled by Rhymefest, and Hurricane Waters was used to great effect in Trouble The Water, a heartbreaking Hurricane Katrina documentary. He ultimately makes pop music, but with an almost reggaesque sing songy delivery, his tunes are filled with elements recalling Curtis Mayfield, Bob Marley, Lynard Skynard. But this melee of styles comes together perfectly on both these standout tracks.
Hear for yourself.
