Album Notes

Co-founder/CEO of Black Marketing Entertainment Willy Shakes teamed up with DJ Boy Wonda to put out his 2nd CD "Crushed Linens" The highly anticipated and entirely DJ Boy Wonda-produced album/mixtape features the hit singles "360 Bounce", "Lonely" and "It's The Money".

The album is reminiscent of the "golden-era" of hip hop, referring to early and mid-90's rap, where lyrics were the decisive factor of whether you were hot or not. Shakes mixes a laid back flow with witty punchlines and interesting concepts to create an album worth listening to from beginning to end.

DJ Boy Wonda plays his part too, with beats that seem to fit Willy Shakes' style so perfectly. The soul and jazz samples Boy Wonda uses on tracks like "The B.O.S.S. Remix" and "Mayday" gives the album a cool vibe, yet the hard hitting baseline of tracks like "The Elm" and "Lonely" give it a good balance and keeps you on the edge of your seat.

This album is a must-have in your hip-hop collection, right next to your big gold dookie chain, Kangol bucket, unlaced Adidas sneakers and "Paid in Full" 12" vinyl. In other words, it's hip-hop in it's purest form.
