Melanin 9 album "Magna Carta" reviewed by Oli Arditi



Expect this to be the first of many!

London's Melanin 9 releases his debut official album "Magna Carta" on 3rd December, following on from much vaunted Mixtapes and EP's "High Fidelity", "144,000" and "Orion's Stencil"

Journalist Oli Arditi is first off the mark with a typically in depth analysis of the 14 tracks on offer which includes features by Triple Darkness and Roc Marciano.

As an artist, Melanin 9 is renowned as a conscientious lyricist with superior wordplay, and its no secret that this album has been a long time in the making, as each, verse, track, producer and guest artist is painstakingly put together, a fact Oli picks up on

"The degree of commitment and seriousness with which this album has been assembled is hard to miss"...."this is an artwork of great power, remarkable vision and pinpoint accuracy"

Its a really insightful review of the album and the artist, and can be read in full at http://oliverarditi.com/2012/10/13/melanin-9-magna-carta-hip-hop/

A new single from the album "Landmark" produced by Anatomy will be launched this week, with further special releases earmarked in the coming weeks and months. He will also be filming a new interview with The Hip Hop Chronicle and performance for the SBTV Series SkooledBy shortly, so look out for those hitting the internet soon.

To mark the release of the album, a launch event will take place at London's Vibe Bar on 23rd November. Full details of special guests and more information about the night will be announced in the next couple of weeks, but it will be a night not to miss for all fans of hip hop in the city
