DISCOVERING FREENESS




Today I discovered freeness while surfing the net. Freeness is a project with the intention of providing opportunities for unsigned UK acts individuals and collaborators who produce creative music, particularly those from Black, Asian and ethnic minorities.

Conceived by Turner Prize-winning visual artist Chris Ofili (the artist who makes art using elephant dung/shit) and developed with the help of a range of partners including the Arts Council, Bloomberg, OMM and his friends Gavin Alexander and Tony Nwachukwu from CDR and Charlie Dark of Blacktronica.

Check out the freeness site where you can listen to some of the artist who took part in the project, I’m feeling the song Fall in Love by Champayne Marks she sounds a bit like keyshia cole. I’m also feeling The Heard with there track- Bigger than us, the beat sounds like a talib kweli beat.
