Literally Seeing Through Him Understanding He Aint Give A Sh!t See His Mind Was Clouded On The "Grindin'" To Take A Lil' Time And Imagine Where I'd Been To Visualize The Situation Growing On "The Horizon" Just To Be There For A Moment To Say "This Is My Son..."

about

The purpose behind the “Purple” mixtape is the capture a shade of one’s self in a musical portrait. The shade of purple when interpreted through emotion often blends struggle and beauty, as well as ignorance and bliss as in example the great novel by Alice Walker and motion picture starring Whoopi Goldberg. The pinnacle of vitality. In this respect, Quebo expresses through the tracks a sense of purple in eventual variety. From the deep rooted essence tied into the story based on the title track, you find tracks that’s seem almost “everyday life” such as “Feeling Just fine” amplifying the experience of stardom, to the excellently performed “Smooth Sh!t” which gives a straight forward glimpse into ignorance and heavy drug dependency, all while boasting the promise of wisdom amongst happy mischief. Beyond this relation to the fan, the mixtape carries a since of direction atop the chaos some tracks throw you into. The Sweet symphony accomplished within “LLL” an inspirational ballad that takes the listener to church at times within its verses. Sweet, seductive and cunning are words fans associate with slow songs on the “Purple” mixtape such as “Hurt” & “For Ya”, which amazingly steps into the personal feelings of the artist as he confronts his own realities and frustrations. A truly human album for the true human listener, delicately sewn together by Quebo and legendary features such as Kuntry Boy Telly of Platnum Playaz, Business of YNTRE, Skull Bruthaz’s Mrs. Perfect and Trey Songz to name a few. A true RnB delight for any type of listener with optimistic, powerful and vibrant lyricism. Hands down one of the most creative pieces of work to hit the waves this winter.
