MC Yogi - Elephant Power download mp3 flac

It is not often I am stirred to write a revue for new albums, there has to be something special about it. In the case of Elephant Power something special is certainly the case.
What happens when you combine yoga with hip hop? In the hands of MC Yogi, you get a first-of-its kind new record mixing the energy, beats and vocal styling’s of rap music with traditional Indian instruments, kirtan-style chanting and yoga-inspired lyrics. With 14 original tracks celebrating Indian mythology and spirituality, MC Yogi’s genre-bending debut, Elephant Power, offers a devotional hip hop experience.

Every track stirs something for me, the sentiment of spirituality is foremost within this music, but the music itself is really something remarkable. There is a fantastic sense of humour throughout the entire album with each track offering its own sense of individuality.

Elephant Power features an all star cast including Krishna Das, Bhagavan Das, Jai Uttal and Sharon Gannon.
Favourite track for me is Track 8. Son of Shiva. The poetry, the beats, the humour... everything about this track has it listed a future classic for me.

MC Yogi is a new find for me, but be assured I will be awaiting future releases from this totally unique artist. This album has given my friends and I much pleasure.
