Inno a.k.a. Innocent? @Innocentflow13 ((Music artist))
In the United States, one of the legal system’s tenets holds that an individual is innocent until proven guilty. Such concepts need not apply to the streets. And in the case of Innocent? Vs. The People, the jury is still out. As the judge and listener, you are presented with two versions of the same story: On one hand, the defendant claims to be a quiet, well respected honor roll student, from the Pink Houses projects in East New York, Brooklyn, while on the other, the prosecutor sees a hoodlum who has had his share of troubles for illicit activities. It’s up to you to make a decision. Your evidence.... The music.
Innocent?’s lyricism and beat selection is a return to the roots of Hip-Hop, when masses of people would gather around two turntables in the local park to watch a freestyle or just get down. Not only can Innocent? entertain, he also educates. As a teacher of the game and the streets to the younger generation of “rappers”, Innocent? approaches emceeing like a diligent student in class, while drawing influences from the greats before him, such as Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, and the Notorious B.I.G, among others. Innocent? requires only a song concept or the mood provided by a beat for his pen to hit the pad, allowing him to express his passion for the art and what he knows best – his life experiences. It’s not just about a major deal for Innocent? Like any other person standing on trial, Innocent? wants and needs to have his story heard.
From watching Hip-Hop organically grow in the parks of his neighborhood to now sharing his lessons and stories on the mic, Innocent? and T.H.E.M. Recordings prepare to shut things down, starting with this double album project, Love It Or Hate It. When asked about the concept behind his debut, Innocent explains: “Love It Or Hate It touches on life in and out of this “Rap Game”. He delivers everything from his pains to the ambition needed to get past any struggle. With the album’s opening track “Love it or Hate it, “ Innocent? centers on an individual who’s beginning to understand the realization of fact & fiction when it comes to the music industry. It speaks to the album as a whole and the message is simply “do what you have to do for you and don’t get blinded by the facades ”, Innocent? concludes. The already released, Love It Or Hate It double album, includes guest appearances from Sadat X, Roc Marciano, Smif n Wessun, Shabaam Sahdeeq, Nutso, Royal Flush, Sean Price, Nitty Scott MC, and more. Let the trial of Innocent? Vs. The People commence....
