Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease)
November 17, 2007 - Spoken word performing artist London Bridgez releases new single "X" produced by Boston's own Deskbangah Productions.
The first collaboration with R&B writer & vocalist Shey Butta. Together they perfectly articulate the R&B potential of spoken word poetry.
"X" is the story of two females who are connected by their relationship to one man. London tells the story of not having his full attention because he is 'still caught up with his ex'. The Ex girlfriend portion is performed by Shey who admits she is till emotionally connected. This is not a girl fight piece. It reveals the complex nature of emotions, expectations in past and present relationships. The joint rides words easily over a melody telling a story that is passionate and honest.
"X" can heard on London Bridgez' myspace page www.myspace.com/londonbridgez
"London, I can hardly find a definition for the way you express your art. It sounds so smooth, well stressed, kind of a soft & gentle sensitive rap...don't know and at least I would refuse to define it: but it's wonderful & touching!" says Markus of the band Sound Yards, Düsseldorf, Nordrhein-Westfalen Germany http://www.myspace.com/soundyards
" London, You have to rep. on my new album! I know you got something to say that make sense"
says hip hop artist "Freddie Cruger aka Red Astaire" South Stockholm Sweden http://www.myspace.com/redastaire
