Delaware's Baldwin has been a busy man lately. In addition
to his role in the cult film Without A Badge,
he's been in the studio crafting music for the Philadelphia
based CBS hit drama Hack.
The resulting effort is the silky smooth One Nation
that aired on a recent episode of the surprise Friday
night hit. The brother has even been featured in two
episodes of the show so ya know he gotta be doing something
right.
One Nation is a smile invoking, slow head noddin'
track that sounds as it if was crafted for the medium
that it was used in. Baldwin is a confident vocalist
and his rhymes are as equally laid back as the beat
and do nothing but complement the instrumentation. He's
enough of a veteran to know when and when not to try
to overpower a track. Add in comforting horns to this
sweet groove and the throwback Neo Soul balladeering
of Bunny Sigler manning the hooks and One Nation
is nothing short of a certified success.
Baldwin is not going to be a star someday. He already
is.
