Stalley is the newest member of the Maybach Group that Officer Ricky is putting together. I see him as a good fit with them to add a little versatility. He hits us with a song titled Summer In America, which is also a tribute to the late Gil Scott-Heron. May 27, 2011. RIP...
"The passing of Gil Scott-Heron on May 27, 2011 prompts reflection. His fusion of blues, jazz and soul combined with clear, concise social commentary is at the core of hip-hop’s roots. The longevity of his career too proves something often ignored – our voices stand as long as we wish to allow. Celebration of the Summer is a typical theme of rap music, we’re here again 20 years after Fresh Prince spit happy-go-lucky bars… and we’ll be here again two decades from now. Scott-Heron’s legacy of activism through words and voice should not be forgotten, and neither should the potential to both entertain and teach in the truest sense simultaneously." quoted from http://www.stalley330.com/blog/2011/06/new-music-stalley-summer-in-america-prod-rashad/
