On this EP, Woods joins forces with the veteran uber-talented producer behind some of the soulful sounds of the likes of Little Brother, MURS, Pete Rock and Erykah Badu, who also doubles as the owner of the record label that Tyler is signed to, Jamla Records… By the way, I call Tyler by his first name because I feel a connection with him after listening to this EP as you will too, you might even think you attended the same college or something but alas I digress… The producer I was referring to is none other than thenbsp;incomparablenbsp;9th wonder but you already knew that. Did I forget to mention that Tyler Woods is from North Carolina – the home of 9th Wonder and some of the most burgeoning artists such as J. Cole, Yahzarah, Darien Brockington and amongst others!There must be something in the water right? Well, without any further ‘ado’, lets PLUG the music!/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”Tyler starts ‘The Mahogany Experiment’ on a remorseful note as he reminisces on the EP’s first song titled ‘Stayed Away Too Long’. On the song, he apologises after neglecting nbsp;his woman which is obviously a good subject matter as all the fellas can relate to this. 9th wonder comes clean with a monotonous backdrop that allows Tyler to adequately convey his apology, confessions and much needed request to be taken back in such heartwarming fashion that before you even get to the last hook, you’re all smiles as his melodious voice penetrates your heart with so much ease. He does this effortlessly, nonbsp;auto-tuning, just GOOD Music… Did I hear you say hype?

None other than Styles P (one third of veteran Hip-Hop group, the LOX) and he comes in to do what only “The Ghost” can do – lay a couple crispy clean rap verses on this truly Hip-Hop influenced track which still manages to remain Ramp;B enough for Tyler to do his thing. ‘Only Knew’ sees Tyler lament about how he misses a lover with Styles P making the song more interesting as his opening verse gives the listener food for thought./divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”blockquote style=”text-align: center;”nbsp;nbsp;span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”color: #a64d79;” span class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-size: xx-small;”bispan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: Times, ‘Times New Roman’, serif;””/spanspan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: Times, ‘Times New Roman’, serif;”but she is gone with the wind/or gone with her friends/ but i’m like damn!! /i hope she aint gone with a MAN/spanspan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;””?!/spannbsp;/i/b/span/span/blockquote/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”Tyler also gives a teary but heartfelt rendition about the reasons why he misses her and how he wishes she “only knew” and I seriously can relate to Tyler on this song, especially the line;nbsp;ispan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”color: #a64d79;””kisses for no reasons”/span/i.

This is without any doubt in my mind, the best baby making song so far this year and if Tyler Woods was here two decades ago, he would fit perfectly into the legendary American Ramp;B group, Jodeci.
