The music of Soul Supreme moves, grooves, throbs, and hits more than ever before. But the colorful sonic palette of Poetic Justice actually sprouted from a dark place: an ongoing battle with an independent label to reclaim his master rights-even today, 'Industry Rule #4080' is still in full effect. So copping this record doesn't only support his cause-it's also well worth it for the listener. Poetic Justice features Soul Supreme's biggest line-up of guest musicians to date: including drummer J-Zone, bass player Glenn Gaddum Jr., Gallowstreet's Jeroen Verberne, and Radiohop's Johnny Biner and Euan Jenkins. With Soul Supreme himself on his trusted set-up and a newly added Clavinet, his melting pot of jazz-funk, hip-hop grooves, soulful cuts, and library funk sounds richer than ever before.'I have decided to create a positive outlet for what is a very negative event in my life,' he writes in the announcement of Poetic Justice. 'I wrote music that reflected how I feel going through this process. No matter what the legal battle results in-I know I have made something beautiful and honest from this terrible experience. At least for myself but hopefully for others to enjoy it as well.'Rest assured, Poetic Justice is a record to fully enjoy; from the first heartfelt notes on 'Intro (Pullin' Back The Curtain)' to the last thumping drum hits of 'I Rest My Case.'
