div style=”text-align: justify;”br /OK NOW before we get into this, I wanna ask you to put to one side any and all of the preconceived notions that you might have about what Music is OR should be OR should sound like OR who OR what should be making music OR whatever notions else that you might have about music… Because you are seriously about to be thrown by this… I know I was!!!br /br /div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”/divdiv class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”a href=”http://kelleemaize.com/images/pghclose.png” imageanchor=”1″ style=”margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;”img border=”0″ height=”212″ src=”http://kelleemaize.com/images/pghclose.png” width=”320″ //a/divspan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: inherit;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: inherit;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: inherit;”br /span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: inherit;”So what do we have here then?

That was Kellee Maize on a track titled ‘Pulse’ amp; she is, in her own words, a ‘White, Blonde, Rapper’… Now you really don’t need to lie about this BUT when you saw that picture up top, did you in your wildest imaginations envision hearing what you just heard? Nah you can be honest lol… iLove it! It’s just very different from what I’m typically used to… The production on this amp; as with the overriding musical vibe on this album is quite Baltimore/East-Coast/D.C Club-Scene Sounding… It’s Hip-Hop, It’s Dub-Step, Its Reggae, Its Dance, Its House… which in itself is quite impressive that the album is still largely about Kellee’s lyrics which do NOT get drowned by the varied musical backdrop… It’s a HUGE feat in my eyes! While we’re on her lyrics, let’s check her out on this next record./spanbr /span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”br //span/span/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”object height=”81″ width=”100%” param name=”movie” value=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fwe-plug-g-o-o-d-music-2%2Fkellee-maize-third-eye”/paramparam name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”/paramembed allowscriptaccess=”always” height=”81″ src=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fwe-plug-g-o-o-d-music-2%2Fkellee-maize-third-eye” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”100%”/embed /object a href=”http://soundcloud.com/we-plug-g-o-o-d-music-2/kellee-maize-third-eye”/a br /span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”br /span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”What you just heard was ‘Third Eye’ and one of mynbsp;favouritenbsp;records on the ‘Aligned Archetype’, it’s laced with that hippie, intellectual,nbsp;retrospectivenbsp;lyrical showing that I’m a sucker for, this record is BIG! For some reason, she reminds me of Kid Cudi (a Kid Cudi that I can actually listen to) mixed with Missy Elliot (circa her ‘Miss E… So Addictive’/’Under Construction’ days) amp; that’s only when she’s rapping… Now on bits that she sings, she does her thing amp; she does her thing WELL!br /br /div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”a href=”http://kelleemaize.com/images/melleeclose.png” imageanchor=”1″ style=”margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;”img border=”0″ height=”212″ src=”http://kelleemaize.com/images/melleeclose.png” width=”320″ //a/div/span/spanspan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”br /span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”border-collapse: collapse;”Are you still doing a double-take at the picture of Kellee as you listen to the music thinking it can’t be the same person? Can I just say something because there is something that should be said about this woman’s flow… I like the way she switches up amp; down between that rapid-fire flow, her easy laid-back persona amp; the melodic spitting style she throws in from time to time. a href=”http://twitter.com/KELLEEMAIZE”ibKelle Maize/b/i/a is DOPE! We’re definitely putting our #goodmusic stamp all over this one… nbsp;We’re gonna share one more record from the album with you, lemme know your thoughts on this one yeah?
