ALBUM REVIEW: “Pigeon John Sings the Blues!” by Pigeon John

3.16.2005 — 4 Comments

Pigeon John’s latest album, “Pigeon John Sings the Blues!” came out on March 8th. I downloaded it from iTunes yesterday and haven’t stopped listening since!

This album is NOT for everyone. Especially if you think “Hip Hop” is “of the devil”.

14 tracks make this CD worth every penny of $9.99, but it wasn’t until after I already bought it from iTunes that I found out that the actual “physical” CD includes some bonus features that you just don’t get when you buy from iTunes… Sad.

Pigeon is a bit more honest with his “Spiritual Side” on this album. Track 13 is called “Draw Me” and the chorus sings, “Draw Me Closer to You, Lord”.

What is it about Rap & Hip/Hop that allows someone like Pigeon John to be extremely honest – lyrically.

It was a breath of fresh air to see this album available on iTunes AND to be seen in the same section as Eminem, The Game, 50 Cent, etc.!
