Bad Taste

Thumbing Thru Foliage is a blunted journey through YungMorpheus’ mind where personal lyrics intertwine with socio-political themes and tongue in cheek humour. Produced entirely by ewonee. Lead single Fistfulofgreens grooves on a g-funk-esque plain and is an assured mission statement -“original man who got the game plan, I aint switching my hands inside these strange lands” whilst also sharing some intimate insight “I don’t ever answer questions that the feds askin, they were cuffin’ my mama, you know I had to blast them”.

Second single Sovereignty takes a more soulful turn with ceremonial strings and r and b samples ringing under braggadocious bars. Third single Middle Passage is a more introspective cut -sombre vocal and piano loops are juxtaposed with neck snappin’ energetic drums. Describing the project in his own words, YungMorpheus says, “Peace peace, I consider this album a call to action of sorts. The world is rife with distractions and oppressive tactics but niggas move through it nonetheless ! Respect to ewonee for providing a beautiful backdrop for me to get some much needed shit off my chest. Maneuver through the foliage yall...Power to all black people ! Salute to those who listen”.

Ewonee adds, “Growing up like we did in this corporation we deal with a lot. Usually gotta go through the mud to get to the greens. Good comes with the bad and vice versa, learning how to adjust is a must. Hope y’all get that from this. Roll up count up and mount up. Peace”.
