THE REVIEW
I discovered the group from a compilation: Buddha Bar. The track "Naturally," I found interesting. Even though soul is not precisely my non-genre, I found it so appealing, light, and especially elegant; it made me think of the perfect piece. So, I got the CD, featuring the creative phenomena on the cover: on the left, singer Z-Star, and on the right, Morten Varano, the mind and creator of the project. Well, almost surprisingly, I found those sensations throughout the entire CD! Funk-jazz rhythms, sampled beats, electronic sounds, and always that feeling of perfection; it seems incredible that in 3 months and 21 days of study, they could bring such an album to life. The voice of the very talented Lady Zee or Z-Star (I believe she doesn't even know what to call herself yet) transports the listener on a dreamy night voyage, as testified by her influences—psychedelic soul and cinematic jazz. An album I can no longer do without...

03 In the Black of Night (04:37)
V1
Bang bang bang
Feel the killah lead
Whiz on pass miss my head
Left turn watch the crimson flow
Brother man on the floor
Ching ching ching let the dollars go
Cause life ain’t messin round no more
Stone cold when they knock me out
In the black of night i heard em shoutin murder
In the black of night
V2
Bright white light up ahead
Screaming sirens that i dread
No one but me to be
Witness to this tragedy
Brotherman with open eyes
A single tear that he cries
Smiles at me and stands up tall
In the black of night i heard em shoutin murder
In the black of night
V3
Run run run
Brother said to me
Before the son of samedi
Finds you here in this place
A pale look now on his face
But before i could go
The villains they returned for more
The clock did stop dead on four
In the black of night i heard em shoutin murder
Tik tik tok that was it
A lone hand rose from the pit
A gentle face with saddened eye’s
Took the villains by surprise
A soul for a soul samedi he said
In the black of night who dat shoutin murder
In the black of night
Murder
In the black of night
