I don't quite understand what's happening with Tevin Bokey, but he's just
released nine albums in the last few days.
'My World',
'Fire',
'Destiny',
'Smile',
'Far Away',
'Dawn',
'Fly High',
'Life'
and
'Crying Time'. ..and these aren't short 6 or 7 track albums, most have over 10, the featured one has 14 tracks.
UPDATE: It appears that another 'artist' called Taniel Harris has also released nine albums and Thomas Crane released another around 10-12 May - the common denominator is Ice Cold Records. According to shrimperman who left a comment, and a few others, a few of the tracks on the featured album are Wendell B tracks ('Anything', 'Good Times' & 'Inside My Mind') from 2003 'Good Time' album (or very good covers). The sound quality on these albums is poor - the general consensus is that these albums may be rip-offs. If anyone from Ice Cold Records would like to comment to clarify then that would be appreciated!
I haven't had time to investigate them all except for 'Crying Time'. Real soul music! He sounds similar to Luther Vandross
on many of the tracks. If the others are as good as this, I'll certainly
be posting them.
The track that brought me to him was 'Inside My Heart' but there are
plenty of great tracks on this, and presumably the other, albums, once I
managed to get to listen to them.
Unfortunately, I can't find any information about him. He looks quite
young on the album sleeves, yet his voice sounds very mature and older
than he looks, if you understand what I mean.
If anyone knows anything about this new(?) artist them please leave a
comment.
