The Pilgrimage Of Samael Angel

 

If you are reading this it means that this 4 years project is almost over and just about to be released worldwide. All the sweat, the trips to the hospital, the friends I've lost, the people who I've alienated, the time that I'll never get back, the death of my social life and all the other crappy things that I went through are about to be transformed into this craft.

This project tells the story of Samael Angel which will be divided into 3 chapters and it's merely entitled : The Pilgrimage Of Samael Angel.

 

The first chapter "Samael Angel" has been released on June 25th 2009. The second chapter entitled "Samael's Sentience" will be released on June 25th 2010 and at last the third chapter "The Credence Of Samael" will be released on June 25th 2011.

Those releases will be made worldwide for FREE  through different platforms (iTunes, Iras World, etc).

 

It's hard to label the genre of this project since it is very eclectic. It's more of a melting pot between rap, slam, sing along, classical & storytelling. But we could sum it up and label it African Rap and/or Storytelling Rap.
