The rapper and hip-hop producer known
as Aye Em is releasing a new full-length hip-hop album, “Meridian
Medicine.” Like Aye Em's previous music releases, “Meridian
Medicine” is being proudly published on the Sun Hi independent
music label, outside the control and direction of the corporate music
industry. Based on bass, boom-bap, and the urban poetry of Aye Em,
himself.
Aye Em cites as main artistic
influences such legends of the mic as Eminem, Mos Def, Kanye West, J
Cole, Future, Tory Lanez, Jay Z, Drake, the Wu-Tang Clan, Prince, and
T.I.
In addition to the considerable skills
of Aye Em, the “Meridian Medicine” LP also flaunts the talents of
Jamal Gino Carey and Melodic Mel. It is Aye's most prominent release
since 2015's 'I'm Listening.'
“Meridian Medicine” is about more
than just rhythm and bass, rhymes and lines, however. It's a musical
journey which reflects the careful balancing of style, sound, and the
American hip hop culture from coast to coast. It's a sonic journal
put to beats and performed by Aye with all the introspection of a
philosopher.
“This album is about my growth as a
man, my mistakes, my flaws, my achievements, and efforts in music,”
writes Aye Em. “This is the next chapter to 'I'm Listening.' It's
me all day, that ain't ever gonna change, but I let the mood
transition to euphoria. A lot of West Coast / East Coast flavor
mixed with some trap.”
Several tracks on “Meridian Medicine”
come straight from the pulse of contemporary hip hop, singles like
“Trouble,” “Monster” and “God Given.” Other songs
(“Choices,” “Respect,” “Young n Vegas”) show Aye Em's
natural stylistic progression as an artist from his “I'm Listening”
album.
“['Meridian Medicine'] is for the
world,” Aye Em writes. “There's a little something on this
project for everybody. It's a summer banger, winter heater, a night
rider and a roll up and vibe type album – find ya zone and maintain
it.”
In the end, Aye Em emphasizes that it's
his loyal fan base who keep his music coming.
“I appreciate and love all my
supporters and fans. Y'all are making this possible. I won't ever
give you a lesser product and this one right here is for the world we
live in now and the future. Y'all are the best and I thank God for
each and every one of you.”
“Meridian Medicine” becomes
available online worldwide soon. Watch for its appearance at over 700
online music retailers anywhere excellent hip hop is sold.
