I have his album "Citizen Cope", but nothing else. I love it though, and i think he's definatley an underrated artist.

That's a good one too. Let The Drummer Kick has got to be one of the best songs of the decade. I'm going to send you this album so expect a PM soon.

I have that Citizen Cope album too

I heard the song 'Bullet and a Target' which I loved so then went out and bought the album. It was a random gem that I enjoy very much. Anyway, great review!

I can't for the life of me remember what inclined me to buy this album a couple of years ago, and even today I still have no idea why, but I can tell you honestly that I do not regret it. Clarence Greenwood, the voice of Citizen Cope (and former DJ for Basehead) has a tendancy to immediately mesmerize you with his subtle genius. He has an interesting dichotomy to his music. It's incredibly passionate, but at the same time has a seemingly disinterested feel to it. My friend once described it as "it sounds like someone snuck up on him with a recorder while he was just sitting around playing his songs in his room." His music is poetry. You have your hip-hop beats, your mellow piano melodies, all with your easy-listening pop. The lyrics are visceral and moving... not something to be ignored or dismissed.

Standout tracks include (but are not limited to):
Pablo Picasso
Son's Gonna Rise
Sideways
Penitentiary
Hurricane Waters
Bullet and a Target
Fame

After the videos and your description, I'm pretty sure I want to hear a lot more of this.

Awesome, and thank you! I like introducing people to new music, but I love posting an album and finding that people enjoy the same music as I do even more!
