Chicago MC Bullet AKA Jeanius Jenkins is finally gearing up to back to the lyricsrelease his debut album Back to the Lyrics on July 29th. The album is a true testament to how sincere this young Columbia College student is to the art of beats and rhymes.
Bullet who has been garnering the support of his home city understands the importance of originality in todays marketplace and hopes that fans will understand by listening to this album just how serious he is as an MC. “I put a lot of effort into this project and I do think it is a strong introduction to me as both a lyricist and a writer, but this is just the beginning really.”
There is nothing that this Chicago MC is afraid to do. It is his versatility that will win a person over every time. He doesn’t want to hear that you can only rap in a certain way or attract a certain market. Bullet is aiming for total domination. He knows he can maintain his individuality and uphold his credibility and when he releases Back to the Lyrics his artistic capabilities will be on show for the world to appreciate and the industry to respect.
The album is filled with tracks which have the ability to capture the attention of various audiences thus encouraging a mass appeal for the enthusiastic lyricist. “I want to re-engasasge fans with what Hip-Hop is about,” explains Bullet. “This project is about ridiculous beats and serious storytelling.”
With heavy bass driven and synthesizer loops in abundance, Bullet is definitely making his mark with Back to the Lyrics. The production on the album fell into the capable hands of fellow Chicagoans Vanysh and Slot A. Both provided Bullet with a highly versatile backdrop for him to paint his picture of what life is for a 21 year old college studio in Chicago right now.
His determination at becoming a success is summarized in this opus, each and every track was crafted with the intention that it will become a single. Bullet never half steps which is probably a good thing considering how fast he is heading upwards and onwards.
