<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nMixtape: Your Highness
\nArtist: Space Bound
\nRelease: Oct 1, 2012<\/p>\n
Originating from Des Moines Iowa, Kaleem<\/strong> and Apollo<\/strong> come together to create Space Bound<\/strong>, a futuristic duo whose fusions of Hip-Hop and R&B blend beautifully with their futuristic beats. Since their recent success of To the Moon and Back<\/strong> that dropped earlier this summer, huge opportunities have indeed been thrown their way for them to bring us a more sophisticated level of music like Your Highness<\/strong>. Hosted by Haris Amilli, Space Bound\u2019s<\/strong> 15 track project has originality that reaches far beyond the nature of their dope, electronic, bass-heavy beats. <\/p>\n The track \u201cFree\u201d<\/em> sets up the mood for this project, with merging the hip-hop genre with the current sampling fixation that so many underground DJ\u2019s employ these days. Apollo<\/strong> sings about finally reaching your dreams and not letting anything hold you back. \u201cI been through the worst, I been let down\/Tasted the dirt, I know the ground\/ the one that made it was me\/The one that changed was me\/ I lived though the hurt pound for pound\/ Did all the work, found it out\/ the one that made it was me \/The one that changed was me\u2026..\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cInhale\u201d<\/em> presents an unforgettable yet sincere confessional from the crooner in which he reveals his lust for a significant other as they get high and intoxicated. Kaleem<\/strong> adds to the mystique when he spits \u201c I inhale, exhale babygirl that\u2019s sex-hales\/ I ain\u2019t had enough, we can catch planes like red tails\/ got codeine in my cup, I ain\u2019t never holdin\u2019 my tongue\/imma show \u2018em all wassup while we blow all these blunts\u2026\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n \u201cStrangers\u201d<\/em> is by-far a subject of content that has been narrowed to \u201cdrugged up, sex music\u201d when in reality, it\u2019s the portrayal of a man deeply affected by love and is now merely out for a good time. \u201c Blunts rolled, tits out\/ watch it go up in smoke\/girl loves to boast, she left him on another not\/she just right here tryin\u2019 to get herself a double dose\/ A double dose of the captain\/ Knowing way back no one would a backed him\/now that\u2019s cold: Nat King\/ watch us walk back, lookin back like that\u2019s then\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Now Your Highness<\/strong> takes a turn for the trill with \u201cShe Right\u201d<\/em> that features D. Carlone<\/strong>. Sick production partnered with lyrics about finding that one baddie that everyone wants and he knows that he can get her. \u201c I\u2019m so ahead of you niggas\/I got the mind of a jedi\/Meet a bad bitch on Facebook\/ message he and take a red eye\/ I pack a whole bunch of rubbers , cuz I\u2019m hopin\u2019 to fuck her\/ I\u2019m blowin\u2019 on something and yea she blowin\u2019 on something\/ one of us puffin and only one of us suckin\u2026.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Spacebound<\/strong> collaborated with Dan Cahill<\/strong>, who engineered the first nine tracks and concluded the general sound of Your Highness<\/strong>. Every region has its own style of hip hop and actually that also goes for Iowa. This album is completely unique-but unique in a good way. If this is what Iowa is bringing to the music scene then we definitely want more. The world will understand; music is what feeling sounds like. Do yourself a favor and cop Your Highness here<\/a>.<\/p>\n – Courtney Deleon<\/p>\n
