Rapper Marlon Craft crashes the set with his album Funhouse Mirror – a set that showcases Craft as a magnetic presence on the mic that separates himself from many of his peers by managing to to come across as youthful without seeming shallow while also displaying a hard fought acceptance of himself and his place in the world. Album highlights include a wavy theme set to the idea of having a good time and indulging in more than a few drinks called “Shallow” ( which features Dizzy Wright and closes with a moving poetry piece); an uprising jazz-hop intro piece called “Speakin’ (Intro)“; a chilling look at the parallels between law enforcement officers, the KKK, and gang culture called “Gang Shxt” (which gets a video work up from Nathan R. Smith and John Tashiro ; a bit of self-examining piece set to a thick drum break and glimmering keys called “Show Up“; and an infectious “don’t give up/don’t give in” joint called “Right Now“.
