Cleveland Robinson - This Is America

Review by Kazi Sakin Safayet

Cleveland Robinson's album This Is America is a powerful and thought-provoking collection of songs that speaks to the current state of the country. The album is a blend of soul, funk, and R&B, with Robinson's smooth and soulful vocals leading the way.

The album's title track, "This Is America," is a standout. The song is a commentary on the state of the country, addressing issues such as police brutality, racism, and gun violence. Robinson's lyrics are poignant and hard-hitting, and the song's catchy beat and infectious melody make it an instant classic.

Other highlights of the album include "Freedom Train," a funky track that celebrates the power of music to bring people together, and "Love Is a Trap," a soulful ballad about the pitfalls of love.

About Cleveland Robinson

Born: 1926-1928 in Macon, Georgia Died: December 5th, 2019 in Cleveland, Ohio (aged 91) Mr. Robinson was raised and a resident of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He formed a Quartet and began singing in his local church. Cleveland later married there and started a family. Soon after, Cleveland migrated (ironically) to Cleveland, Ohio. A singer/writer/producer/label owner who released at least 15 singles and one album, collectors believe there were a few more. He debuted on Debra Records with "These Are the Hands," which was picked up by Ascot Records (a subsidiary of United Artists). After proposed deals with other majors fell through, Cleveland Robinson issued 12 singles on his own label, Nosnibor Records (Nosnibor is Robinson spelled backwards). Copies of his most popular recording (among collectors) "Love Is a Trap" have been found on both Nosnibor and Alley Cat Records. He recorded at Schneider's Recording by Herman Schneider; the small studio was located in downtown Cleveland.
