Sic&Mad - 23 Blues The Destruction Of Utopia Pt 2
Review by Melissa Hayes
Sic&Mad's latest album, 23 Blues The Destruction Of Utopia Pt 2, is a powerful and haunting addition to their discography. The duo's signature blend of blues and hip-hop is on full display throughout the album, with gritty beats and raw vocals underscoring the themes of struggle and disillusionment.
The album opens with the brooding "Welcome to the End," which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its ominous lyrics and heavy bassline. From there, Sic&Mad delve into a variety of topics, from the struggles of addiction in "23 Blues" to the harsh realities of life in the inner city in "Concrete Jungle."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Utopia," a haunting ballad that features Sic's soulful vocals and Mad's bluesy guitar work. The song's melancholic melody and poignant lyrics make it a standout moment on the album.
