Our Take

Album Review: LANGSTON HUGHES - Dream Keeper

Upon first listen, LANGSTON HUGHES' Dream Keeper is like a musical feast for the ears, with a smorgasbord of jazzy rhythms and soulful melodies that will leave you feeling as blissed out as a cat in a sunbeam.

Imagine if you will, a mixtape curated by the literary legend himself, a fusion of spoken word poetry and smooth jazz that transports you to a smoky underground club in Harlem in the 1920s.

With tracks like "Dreams Deferred" and "Harlem Night Song," LANGSTON HUGHES weaves a tapestry of storytelling that is at once poignant and provocative, reminding us of the power of words and music to transcend time and space.

The album is a true masterpiece, a testament to the enduring legacy of Hughes' work and a celebration of the African American experience. It's the kind of record that makes you want to put on your best fedora, grab a martini, and lose yourself in the mesmerizing sounds of a bygone era.

So grab yourself a copy of Dream Keeper, pour yourself a stiff drink, and let LANGSTON HUGHES take you on a journey through the highs and lows of the human experience. Trust us, you won't regret it. Cheers, darlings.
