Crystal Robert: Keep your ear to the ground for "Phenominal" Siah S Crystal Robert / Special the Times Posted: 10/23/2009 01:31:16 PM MDT
"Some call it luck some plain call it talent, I'm the whole entire package that you others ain't matchin'"- "Phenominal" by Siah S Recent transplant, Terry Josiah Sharpe, has been hittin' this dusty old town hard, bringing with him phenomenally mastered tracks brilliantly matched with thought provoking lyrics that get your mind and soul spinning. Josiah, who goes by the name Siah S, moved to El Paso from California three years ago to study Music Composition at UTEP. Siah claims to have found his love for music as an escape from the troubles that surrounded him back in Cali. Siah has dropped some knowledge at the Best of the Best, Hiney's, O'Hagan"s, Treehouse and most recently at Minerpalooza. "The shows were cool", said Siah, "and there was lots of love after and good feedback on my tracks overall." Siah's goal with his music is to create new and refreshing groove in music, a style he refers to as "rock and soul". Siah believes that this new phenom will bring together the realism of soulful lyrics, melodies and harmonies, with a rock aspect. Catchy hooks and well produced beats best describe the two tracks that Siah has shared with me, entitled "From the Ground Up", and "Phenominal". Siah's voice is thick and smooth as chocolate silk with lyrics that are just as heavy and just as slick. Siah works with hometown musicians and records locally at Jaime Blanco's studio, IntelMusik Sounds. Siah records, mixes and masters with Fellas from The Advertisement Lion's Den, Adair Lion, Blanco Productions, and Paradox. "With the team I surround myself with, our potential is limitless", said Siah of his creative collaborators. "I'll stand up tall on my feet, although you kick the ground under me" -"From the Ground Up" struggle within exemplified through thought-provoking lyrics. Just like his lyrics state, there's no doubt in my mind that Siah will prove to be "Phenominal". Keep your ear to the ground for this one. - Crystal Roberts
