Seph Jones - "Long Road"

DOWNLOAD HERE ON BANDCAMP

DMV native Seph Jones is a familiar name in hip-hop circles from DC to Baltimore. His distinct baritone voice, witty lines, and masterful control of the beat have forged him a reputation that precedes his own monstrous 6'5" frame. The "Long Road" EP showcases these skills in 9 tracks that detail the emcee's ongoing journey for respect and recognition. With beats by veteran producers Tom Delay, SideFX Studios, Nick Tha 1da (Mello Music Group), and Rosirus, Jones provides a taste of what's to come on his long-awaited full length album.

Tom Delay presents "Cases" (released 12.01.09)


From the depths of the Maryland underground, Brake Fast Records is proud to present "Cases" - an album filled with witty lyrics, shifting stream of consciousness raps and intriguing storytelling, all backed by a dark, enthralling soundscape. With top notch production from beat extraordinaires Tom Delay, Mark Henry (Raheem Devaughn, Freeway) and Nick Tha 1da (Emilio Rojas, Ken Starr), to put it simply...the album knocks! 


"Cases" includes outstanding appearances from A-Class (who has been quickly making a name for himself in the Grind Time battle circuit), young Baltimore wordsmith Trace Blam and NC heavyhitter L.E.G.A.C.Y. (Justus League, Hall of Justus) who, fresh off the release of the critically acclaimed "Suicide Music" LP, plays the role of the most corrupt checking in on "Officer Kickass".  The remainder of the album includes tracks from a slew of Maryland emcees, namely Mic Brown, Seph Jones, 4th Down, A6, IronSoul and Xtra, who all provide solid contributions.

In the same vein as conceptual works like Prince Paul's "A Prince Among Thieves", this 1960's, 70's and 80's crime drama-inspired album is a breath of fresh air in these times of exhaustive mix-tape releases and the invariable LP format. As each detailed story advances the discordant plot line to play out more like blockbuster movie than an album, it is clear that "Cases" is not just another compilation.
