Prominent [2005] - Step Into My World [Royalty (SE) #ROYCD9]


A superb modern / neo soul tune from 2005 by Swedish group Prominent from their 3rd album '42 Grams'. Boy ... is this soulful!

I'll take this opportunity to present a few other tracks from the album, with a 'health warning' that a couple of the tracks contain some 'rapping', but to me there's rapping and then there's rapping ... if you know what I mean! i.e. rhythmical rap v ranting rap which is just an unwanted  'noise' to me!

This was their last album. I don't know what happened to them as on the strength of this album, with at least 4 or 5 good tracks featured here, I would have thought it was good enough for further releases. I can find no further releases from them or any of the members of the group, although the lead singer Petricks Castelo did work on a 2008 Swedish movie: Leslie - A Star Waiting To Shine.

It would appear that they broke up, or had a sabbatical, for a few years and then made a comeback with a new single 'The Lights' in 2013, which I'm afraid is not to my taste as it's typical R&B/Hip-hop fodder.

From the same album this one samples snippets of Shalamar's 'A Night To Remember'.
