About uMaNg & B.B.Z. Darney and “The Black Rose Certificate”:
With two full-length albums already under their belts that garnered them buzz in the underground (“Lasting Impressions” & “The Revisited”), New Jersey originated emcee uMaNg, reunites with Swedish producer B.B.Z. Darney (“The Boom Bappin’ Zombie”), to complete their trilogy of albums with their label debut on Ill Adrenaline Records entitled, “The Black Rose Certificate.”
Shortly after inking a deal with the label, the next eight months would find uMaNg & B.B.Z. embarking on a musical journey that would result in their most personal & brutally honest record to date. The title “The Black Rose Certificate”, while a representation of many a symbolism, reflects the duo’s state of mind, the hand they’ve been dealt as typecasts in society. Since being impossible to produce a “black rose” also stands for purest devotion. A kind of devotion that uMaNg & B.B.Z. put forth in their respected crafts.
Over the course of 14 tracks, the duo sonically stick to their traditional “boom-bap” roots, whilst also bringing sounds that range from “darker” to “aggressive”, to even more “melancholic”. The production B.B.Z. Darney showcases is heavier, more conceptual than previous releases. uMaNg has been notable throughout his career for being a clever & witty, punchline heavy emcee. While staying true to his stylings on the mic, he gets deeper & more transparent than past albums have suggested. For every braggadocious track, there is another where the Jersey emcee bares his soul through the pen, opening up about past discretions, family HIStory, amongst other topics on the emcee’s mind. Also unlike “Lasting Impressions” & “The Revisited”, that found the duo being the lone contributors to their works alongside the legendary DJ Grazzhoppa, they now bring along with them close collaborators as well as in-label artists. The album features tracks from the likes of Brick City veteran and close Artifacts affiliate Beneficence, Purpose of the Tragic Allies camp, close friends HexOne & Tek-nition of the critically acclaimed duo Epidemic, and Hashfinger to lend their talents and further enhance the album’s disposition.
