Dave B & Sango – Tomorrow [Album Stream]

Dave B and Sango bless us with an early stream of their upcoming joint project, “Tomorrow”.

The name Seattle doesn’t exactly ring out in the story of hip-hop, certainly not the way Atlanta or New York City or Compton do. Those places are audibly recognizable. But that’s not to say that people haven’t been making notable rap music up in the northeast corner for decades. If you take a stroll back into Seattle’s past, you’ll inevitably run into Sir Mix-A-Lot and his immortal single, the title of which I don’t even need to type. If you look hard enough in the present, you’ll happen upon the left-field creative Shabazz Palaces, who doesn’t fit quite neatly into the pure hip-hop box. And then there’s perhaps the most polarizing local act of them all, Macklemore, whose earnest beginnings exploded him out of the city, making him its undisputed poster boy a few years back. It’s been relatively quiet for the locale since then — but a producer called Sango and a rapper by the name of Dave B, both Seattle natives, are ready to make a little more noise.

Between subject matter and production, “Tomorrow” feels cool and gray throughout, but never dreary or gloomy. It sounds contemplative, young but wise — like the reality of living in one decision, and debating your next one.
