[color=blue]The smooth sounds of R&B with a gospel twist !!
Though Public Mind is Nehemiah抯 first solo release, it is not Nehemiah抯
debut on the music scene. Raised in his father抯 church, Nehemiah has
been performing music in one form or another for most of his life.
Nehemiah had recorded his first song by the age of 12 and at the age of 15
he headlined his first concert in his hometown of Portland, Oregon with
the proceeds going toward teenage victims of domestic violence. It was
after that concert that Nehemiah was convinced that he wanted to pursue
music professionally.
This pursuit has had its ups and downs but each one of them has shaped
who Nehemiah is today, both as an artist and as a person. The highlights
of Nehemiah抯 early career included an appearance in the motion picture
Reggie抯 Prayer, starring the late football star Reggie White. In
addition, Nehemiah appeared on a nationally syndicated talk show, took
his live show to Canada, and opened up for the famed R&B/Gospel group,
Virtue. The experiences of his teenage years opened the door for
Nehemiah to later join Soul, a contemporary gospel group signed to a
subsidiary of the Hendrix record label. This release spent 9 weeks on
the Billboard gospel charts and peeked at number 36. Though the group
was short-lived it provided Nehemiah the opportunity to tour the states
and establish relationships that would bear fruit in the years to come.
After briefly filling the lead vocalist spot in a group with producer HR
Crump (Beyonce), Nehemiah decided to focus on developing his solo project.
His debut solo album, Public Mind, is the product of all of his life
experiences, both good and bad. The mid-tempo track 揟hat Person?is a
celebratory autobiographical account of all that happened to Nehemiah as
he recognized all that Jesus Christ is. Another personal song, 揊ly Away,?
was written for his daughter, Amiah, who died several weeks after being
born. It is songs like these that helped the album find its title.
Nehemiah explains, 揟he title of the album is intended to communicate on
two levels. First, I wanted to emphasize that I identify with my audience.
The things that they struggle with, I struggle with. The things that
trouble them, trouble me. Second, I wanted to show that this album is not
simply a collection of songs, it is a window into my mind and life which I
have made public through this release.?
Nehemiah lists artists ranging from Commissioned to Boyz II Men to Phil
Collins among his influences and the diversity of his personal palate comes
through in the diversity of the album. Nehemiah wrote and produced much of
the disc himself while also teaming with producers and songwriters Derek
Clark (Fred Hammond), Anson Dawkins (Dawkins & Dawkins), Chris Turner
(Singleton抯), Cole Brown (Michelle Williams) and his brother J.B.
(Benjiman). The production and vocals on the project are top notch, there
is nothing about Nehemiah抯 debut that sounds like the independent project
it truly is. But while people will definitely respond to the impressive
vocals and banging tracks Nehemiah hopes they will especially be drawn to
the stories. 揝ome of these songs are birthed out of experiences I抳e
lived and some of them were born out of the experiences of my community.
Not all people will be able to relate to the exact details of every song but
I believe everyone will find themselves somewhere in each song. Each of
them speaks of something true and real that we can all identify with. I
look forward to hearing how people find their own stories in these songs.?
Enjoy this quality rip !!
