From the penitentiary to the pinnacle Rem B. Smooth possesses the ultimate redemption story a not too distant past of pain, prison and his plight to recreate himself as human and artist. A childhood friend turned states evidence would turn against his supplier wearing a wire implicating Smooth in a number of drug deals. A drug bust that would land Rem B. Smooth a 5 to 99 year prison sentence. Paroled to the state he found love with a girl that motivated him to rap early on. Calling Rem daily she would ask "What did you write today?" if his response was "nothing" she would quickly click, saying to him "I don't want to be responsible for keeping you from your destiny goodbye!" Hours later sometimes only minutes he would call back spitting the raps he had just crafted exclusively for her. Much of that same content we hear today as Rem B. often expresses his desires and distrust in songs filled with lust and heartache. Facing betrayal yet again, the girl that inspired him to be great would conspire against Rem. Sending him back to prison on a case that would eventually be dismissed with a verdict of not guilty. Driven by passion, poetically persistent we are gifted with the artful interpretations of an otherwise traumatic experience, love songs to some, horror stories to others. Resilient in nature the redeeming qualities of Rem B. offer reflection and resolution a "Smooth" soundtrack for the soul.more
