Jibreel


I decided for this week to show some people that there is great music out there that isn't rock, funk, or even techno. A great example of this is the smooth Neo-Soul music of Jibreel. I'm certain people just had the image of Neo, from the Matrix, playing a sax or something along those lines, but for those who don't what the term "Neo" means, I will tell you what Dictionary.com told me.
adjective
(used as a combining form) recent or new; "'neo' is a combining form in words like 'neocolonialism'"

So his Soul music is a new form of it. There, now we got that out of the way, the music of soul artist Jibreel is very soothing and in a few songs contain some cool poetry. This is also great music to listen to when you and your spouse are home alone and the kids are at softball practice for the next two hours... When you look at some his pictures on his Myspace, you get the feeling that he would probably be a must see live show when he tours near you.
