BACAO RHYTHM & STEEL BAND "The Serpent's Mouth" CD

From Dr. Dre to Mary J. Blige and Jackson 5 covers! Bacao Rhythm and Steel Band, a project by members of the Mighty Mokambos, who have an overwhelming presence in the current funk scene, have completed a masterpiece steel pan funk album that surpasses their previous work that shocked the scene!

As with the previous album, this album includes classics by hip-hop heavyweights such as Dr. Dre's "Xxplosive," Mobb Deep's "The Learning (Burn)," and Gang Starr's "All For The Cash," as well as soul and R&B masterpieces by Jackson 5's "It's Great To Be Here," Mary J. Blige's "I Love You," and Amerie's "1 Thing." This time, the album also features a cover of Jan Hammer's hit "Crockett Theme," also known as an insert song for the TV drama "Miami Vice." The album lives up to expectations, with the highly skilled and extremely comfortable sound of the steel pan and the killer tropical funk with a thick beat directly connected to the Mighty Mocambos! This album is undoubtedly a must-have for fans of funk/rare groove, world music, hip-hop, and even tropical music!
