Da' Soul Recordings presents... DAZED, a smooth collection of new classic soul ballads & mid-tempo gems from the heartfelt vocal stylings of singer/songwriter RICARDO of Two Brothers Records, come & experience the trials & tribulations of love & life...
Bio / Background
Da' Soul Recordings Group LLC., proudly presents Two Brothers Records recordings artist Ricardo and his debut CD "Dazed." Ricardo AKA "WORDZ" is one of the "Founding Fathers" of Da' Soul Recordings Group LLC. & Co-Founder of Two Brothers Records with his partner, the artist/producer known as "J."
Ricardo, a singer/songwriter from Milwaukee Wisconsin has worked with several of the Da' Soul Recordings Group family of artists; Mona J, "My Frame Of Mind," Chazz Dixon, "Back To The Groove," Renee, "Flavor Of The Day," & Mr. Sonny Garr, "Mood Of Love."
A writer, lead and back ground vocal arranger first, Ricardo steps up front on his solo project with songs that tell as he puts it, "The trials & tribulations of love and life..." "True Too Life" music if you will..." "I believe a song should tell a story... a story that the listener can relate to... that challenges the listener to reside into the inner recesses of his or her mind so as to reflect on their own situation...
↓ more ↓" this ballad laden project takes us from the newness of a relationship, the realness of true love, the trials and tribulations of that love. This is a reality check that all lovers go through and ends with a testimonial from a brother just trying to love his woman.
Ricardo list as his influences, "Anything and everything from Motown to the Philly soul sounds..." "I just love the Temptations, Smokey Robinson, O'Jays, Spinners, Four Tops; What can I say? I'm and O'l School Junkie!" Further influences are the MNPLS soul sounds of Prince and the Time... "Funky music, ya feel me?" He went on to say that groups like the Gap Band, Earth Wind & Fire, Cameo, Parliament, New Edition ("Man, them brothers can step!"), Al Hudson and One Way, Starpoint, Kool & the Gang, etc... definitely had a major influence on his writing style. As for the artists of today, Joe, Gerald Levert, Brian McKnight & that last project by Usher; "Yeah, those guys know how to hold it down. Truth is, I just prefer the ol' School... I mean I have much respect for the current crop of artist such as R. Kelley, Jay Z & Nelly with the whole hip-hop thing, but give me some New Edition, Sade, Regina Belle, Patti Labelle, Luther, O'Jays, you know the ol' Schoolers... and I'm set!"
This brother along with his partner and producer "J," who by the way is responsible for all the musical composition, musical arrangement, and all instruments played on this CD as well as a few background vocals, a CD project that is more than your run of the mill R&B. It is truly music from the Soul. "Man I poured my heart and soul into this project... I tried to pull not only from personal experience but from the experiences of brothers & sisters that have shared the ups & downs of their relationships with me." I guess you could say it's the story of "any man & women, from anywhere USA, of their special moment in time when they found love... All the tracks can stand on there own but this is truly a concept project so keep that in mind while listening... Ricardo's advice... "Cuddle up with the one you love & journey back to the groove that started your love... Settle in and let the mood of love fill the air... Take me as I am... just a brother pouring out his heart to the one woman in his life that matters the most... Fellas, learn your women, become her flavor of the day, everyday... Oh & never forget that she has her own frame of mind... Now ladies... do all the nice guys a favor and show them some love... If you follow these simple steps, you will find that love will still leave you "DAZED." All my Best, Ricardo AKA "WORDZ."
