notes

He's Back!!!!

Finally 4 years after his first cd release;" Respect Yourself ", CITY has returned with his hot new cd release, " BROWN PAPER BAG ". This follow up Cd, was certainly, well worth the wait!

This mix of Dance, Hip Hop, and Crossover Pop music, will certainly make this a favorite of all music lovers. From start to finish, I enjoyed all nine of these great tracks, each one different from the other in genre. No one can tire of this cd, or, even say that the vibe is all the same.
The Dance track: "Come up to my room", had me up and dancing as soon as it began, and other songs like; Pump/pump it up, Tell me more, and Play'r, are destined for success !!! I enjoyed it all.

    Recording Quality/Production: 4 Lead Vocals: 4.5 Musicianship: 4 Lyric Writing: 4 to 4.5 Music Composing: 4 Song Arrangement: 4 Whenever an artist sees a 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 or 3.5 as a score in a certain category (or categories) it means that's an area I feel they need to improve and develop. When someone sees 4, 4.5 or 5 as their score in a category, that tells them, to me, they are in the professional league and have strong potential. Every artist should work hard to earn 4.5 to 5 in every category. It's a very competitive business and people averaging in the 3's (or less) will probably not get too far without a great deal of improvement. I don't give out 4's and 5's easily, so any of those you see, you have earned. Well done! Eugene Foley, Foley Entertainment

  • One "HOT" Release!!!!
    author: Pressbox.co.uk

    In August 2004, 1.1.7 THE MUSIC RECORDS, released a new cd by their premiere artist: "CITY". The cd entitled; "Brown Paper Bag" which was also written and produced by this talented artist, found it's way into clubs via some of the top record pools in NY/NJ/CT and Philadelphia. It stayed on these dj club charts top 50 for 15 weeks, charting 2 to 3 singles from the same cd at the same time. Pump /Pump it up, which was undeniably the club favorite on the cd, quickly made it's way onto some of the top internet based radio station on the web. To read the reviews on the "Brown Paper Bag" cd, is a treat in itself. (www.cdbaby.com/city) Never have i seen such an outpouring of love and support from radio dj's, magazine reviewers and fans as i have for this artist! Reaching #1 on the Top 40 Show in March of this year, was a blessing for City. During a phone interview by "On The Horizon", City was asked how it felt having a number 1 single. His responce was: I would have never guess that so many people would enjoy my music so much, and vote for me. It's a dream come true! Well the dream is alive and well, because his second single "Come up to my room" is making it's way quickly up the charts as well. This week at #29, there is no doubt that this track will do well also. To sum this cd up in a nut shell, Brown Paper bag is one of the best cd's out there. CITY has covered every genre of music, making sure that there is something for everyone.

  • City has the funk

    Enjoyed the CD and live performance of City at The Walk in Atlantic City. City has the voice that can deliver and his music had the Walk rockin.

  • Outrageous music ! ! ! !
    author: CRAIG

    There's a lot of great stuff inside this 'brown paper bag'! What a mix of textures, feels, great vocals and amazingly produced backings...each song is great as a stand-alone, and together they make a CD that doesn't burn out after a couple of listens. The rhythms are infectious, the songs are joyous and fun. Thanks, City!

  • Brown Paper Bag has some great song

    "City" has created an innovative CD for people who lovee REAL music. From funky dance beats to great vocals, City is a musician/producer to be reckoned with. Can't wait to see him on tour. Thanks for the music.

  • A "Must have CD"!
    author: John Anderson

    I had the opportuntiy to interview "City" on my show, the "On The Horizon" radio show. I found City to be intelligent, accurate, and having a nice amount of class. His CD is super! Great dance CD, and I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for party music. It is well conceived, well constructed, and well executed. This CD has great rhythm, and a catchy beat. It is very difficult to find a favorite, because they are all good! "Pump, Pump it up" is number 1 this week on the New Artist Radio charts! I am not surprised at all, because I as much as told him to get ready...this was going somewhere! Sierra Hotel!!

    This is one CD everyone needs in their collection. The fusion of different styles in each track will inspire you. The percussion is dynamic and is sure to motivate you to tap your feet. "Brown Paper Bag" and "Come Up To My Room" are amazing tracks. CITY is where it's at!

    The Nov. 1, 2004 issue of dagensskiva.com gave this cd an 8 out of 10 rating. Yes, we loved it!!!

  • Outstanding
    author: SURE RECORD POOLS: TRADE SECRETS - DJ SMITTY B & LADY BECKIE

    This brown paper bag has lots to offer, and covers it's bases. It's got something for everyone. A bit of rap, r 'n' band soft house. There's some funky music goin' on here. Music has outstanding bass, percussion & special effects tracks in all arrangements. Vocals are equally as good. The most prominent tracks are , Breaking All The Rules, Tell Me More,Brown paper Bag and Come Up To My Room. These cuts all have nice lengths to them. Enjoy!

  • Right on the money!!!
