Funky DL – Le Jazz Courant Noir
Song: Le Jazz Courant Noir
Album: Blackcurrent Jazz 2: The Gold Reflection
After waiting a long time for this release, it lives up to the standard DL sets himself with smooth, jazzy and percussion driven beats and the classic rhymes of Funky DL making this a top piece of work from the UKs favourite MC.
The title of this track is in French and simply translates to the meaning “The Black Current Jazz”. The track is a lyrical reminder of the beauty of the first Blackcurrent Jazz album where I make reference to tracks from it and also the success the album had when originally released in 2001. Lastly this track serves as my mark of respect to some of the greatest jazz musicians over the years including Milt Jackson, Sonny Rollins, Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock.
