Originating from Chicago, Blac Kami, formally known as Blac Samurai, released his newest album, “Iron Essence 2,” on March 4, 2024. Filled with soulful beats, hip-hop, and smooth-flowing verses, this album will draw you in with lyrical storytelling delivered with a powerful punch.
Blac Kami draws listeners in with “Score,” the opening track of “Iron Essence 2,” which encourages listeners “stories” and voices to “be known.” This track embodies Blac Kami’s life if it were to be in a movie, where he shares his own story of a man who has faith in his personal growth.
“Motion” has the same healing beat as the first track, layered with Blac Kami’s authentic raw vocals. This track shows that people will act funny, but we have to ignore them because “it is what it is” and focus on setting our own ambitions into motion.
“Bag III” has a stronger energy, the type that will have you grooving to the commanding flow of verses and thundering background beats. “All In” brings “Iron Essence” to a close with a piano-laden opening that provides a euphoric soundscape. The track is the perfect closure as it sheds light on Blac Kami’s authenticity and self-assurance when it comes to creating music, as he “moves in his own tune” and puts his “all in” into his passion.
Overall, “Iron Essence 2” captures the authentic essence of Blac Kami’s music where he strives to put out his best.
