{"product_id":"seconds-away","title":"Seconds Away","description":"\u003cp\u003eGlue combines the talents of producer Maker, scratcher extraordinaire \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eDJ DQ\u003c\/span\u003e, and the only MC to win the Scribble Jam twice, Adeem. Adeem executes raps freestyle-fast and has that tough type of introspection and doubt that Eminem does. He\u0026#8217;s got excellent skills and steals the show when on mic but, unlike so many other MC\u0026#8217;s, he often lets the music do the talking. After all, this is a group, and Maker and \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eDJ DQ\u003c\/span\u003e get their turns. \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eDJ DQ\u003c\/span\u003e is a rangy scratcher in the spirit of \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eDJ Z\u003c\/span\u003e-Trip whose influence is acknowledged in the liner notes. Maker has plenty of great ideas and his style is three-quarters hip-hop, one-quarter trip-hop. \u0026#8220;Lullaby for the Sun\u0026#8221; could have come from the house of Jazzanova, and his work on \u0026#8220;Mixing Excuses\u0026#8221; is downright dreamy. But it\u0026#8217;s Adeem\u0026#8217;s nearly slang-free narrative that makes the album easy to latch on to. \u0026#8220;Winners Never Sleep\u0026#8221; is his best work, a pitiful story of feeling lethargic, hopeless, and financially strapped. Stunningly smart segues make the album flow and are a good enough excuse to keep your finger off the \u0026#8220;skip\u0026#8221; button. An excellent album from the opening motivational-speaker sample to the last sitar, Seconds Away is a busy but uncluttered, well constructed, moody triumph from the underground.\u003cbr \/\u003e-All Music Guide\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ramona Records","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":2966932,"sku":"","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/9022\/products\/secondsaway_debut_album_.jpg?v=1201797105","url":"https:\/\/glue.myshopify.com\/products\/seconds-away","provider":"Glue","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
