ALBUM REVIEW: The Forsaken Prophesy by PilAto (The Anticipation)

Moments after PilAto dropped the Tracklist and announced his forthcoming album release date my first thoughtful question was; are we about to experience the Coriolis effect in the industry. If one song took the Nation’s attention, what of 17 tracks? Is Pilato going to flush the attention seekers, one hit wonders, close the toilet seat and and sit on it or maybe denounce the current republican President?

I quoted him saying “The most accurate prophecy about a country is not what is said by the mouths of its prophets but by the actions of its people. Great speeches are good for the ear but great actions are great for a living.”

You heard him right!? If your job is deceiving people – He is going to come punch you in the face with thunderous verbs.

We always complain of our local artists not being serious with their careers but if THE FORSAKEN PROPHECY. One album, 17 tracks, 17 stories narrated with some friendly sound; isn’t being serious or artistic, Then I don’t know what seriousness is. Kindly show me because it’s also promised that The Album will come loaded with different genres, special features and more outstanding art.

Artists to look out for are

MO MONEY‘ – known for his rich stable vocals and infectious melodies.
XS‘ – Great wordplay and smart wording comes in with this brother.
JAMES ADAMS‘ – PilAto’s love for rock music got him this Rock star. A great guitarist and vocalist James Wesley Adams from the UK brings those unfamiliar Rock vibes to this album.
HHP‘ – The BOSSO himself HIP HOP PANTSULA walks in this album like a king he is. The multi award winner and a legend HHP makes his presence in TONDOLO.
VINCENT PENSULO‘ – I guess you know that old man who sweeps you off your feet with his vocals. The shikulu (Old Man) behind CHAISA NGOMA CHAISA.
KRYTIC‘ – He is not just a great rapper….. He is into killing rhymes too. KRYTIC jumps in this album not just as a rapper but also as the authority.
CHEF 187‘ – not only is he a great rapper he is also in this album. Chef 187 ‘chi big artist’ just pushed everything up in this album with his intelligent rhymes and delivery.
BASHI MALAMA‘ – known for his voice that just lubricates those emotional wheels, bashi Malama comes in as the professor.
HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT LUNA and JOE BLIGGA? Forsaken Prophecy brings to you these great talents. Luna is a young lady whose voice can simply melt stones and she’s beautiful too. JOE BLIGGA is another beast you forgot to know, started rapping when most of us where playing brick games and now he hits hard in KULANWANWAFYE
WEZI‘ – This girl just makes great songs sound better. She knows how to get to the future and every song she does is a sign post pointing there.
PETERSEN ZAGAZE‘ – He is King Solomon, the dancehall messiah….. he is the music calender, he has made hit songs for days and dates…. months and years….
AND OF COURSE…. pilAto bakaamba…. he says what you won’t say and take the pain if necessary.

The album drops on the 10th of October 2015.
