Editor's review

Black albums, white albums, grey albums, brown albums--remixing has turned into a regular painter's easel lately, and if all the hue talk is a bit silly, the results have been stunning. On his lush solo debut, the fellow behind the brown one not only drops his warm, golden age beats, he also steps up to the mic and delivers chill, confident rhymes.

Biography

Hailing from Landover, MD, Kev Brown has ascended the ranks of the underground to solidify himself as one of hip-hop’s most prolific and universally respected talents.  While producing for a range of artists that include De La Soul, DJ Jazzy Jeff, and Jewel, it wasn’t until his remix work “The Brown Album,” the highlight of what became a billion homemade remixes of Jay-Z’s “The Black Album,” that Kev Brown captured the attention of the entire hip-hop community. 

Paying homage to the true school while honing his own jazz-infused sound, Kev Brown has garnished a reputation as the “torch-bearer of the golden era.”  Heavily influenced by renowned beatsmiths such as Pete Rock, Jay Dee, and DJ Premier, he continues to receive worldwide acclaim for his distinctive brand of grimy soul.  And while Kev’s buttery-smooth production and laid-back vocals shine throughout the album, the project also features a host of guests spots from Critically Acclaimed, Cy Young, Grap Luva, Oddisee, Phonte (of Little Brother), Kenn Starr, Kronkite, Wayna, and Eric Roberson

After numerous collaborations and a host of buzzworthy 12-inches, Kev Brown now steps forward with his debut solo album aptly-titled “I Do What I Do.”  This forthcoming project guarantees to have the entire hip-hop world taking notice
