Loyal fans of The Roots (as I’m sure all of you are) should be very familiar with the work of frequent collaborator Khari Mateen. Along with his past (and soon to be released) work with The Legendary, Khari has also released music with Jill Scott, The Money Making Jam Boys, and J*DaVeY, as well as currently recording with his band, Elevator Fight. Today, we are blessed with the solo debut of this talented musician, Khari. No features on this one, just Khari showcasing his versatility with “seven bold tracks that layer original, unapologetic lyrics over his already distinct production style… Each of the tracks may stem from different places in Mateen’s life, but collectively, act as one chapter in an ever-evolving musical story.” You can stream/purchase the project, after the jump.
