R&B and Hip Hop has shown to be 'hot singles' but after that – no go. Cava takes it to a whole new level which you won't be dissapointed in.{mosimage}

Here at HipHopRemix we try to review and show various types of hip hop music from the lackluster attempts of MIMS to Brother Ali’s innovational music tracks. Well today I am proud to announce Cava to the latter category. The soul singing music maker brings a new flavor to the hip hop community. A breath of fresh air coming from the Bay Area of San Francisco drops her debut album “Give In Let Go”.  If a comparison could be made for those have yet to hear Cava would be that of Alicia Keys but with (real) hip hop / jazz / and a futuristic style…which in the end cannot truly be described because it would not give justice to the music itself.

Labeled as singer/producer Cava doesn’t just sing good melodies with catchy hooks she makes great music PERIOD. The praises for this album can’t be said enough. Dropping on March 25th from, get this, her own label – Cava Music Group. Cava Menzies sings and produces her soul shows it in music form. From the sultry voice in “Strides” and over the R&B -Jazz track of “Sorry” she shows just what good music truly is.

On the album titled track “Give In Let Go” featuring D.U.S.T. who fits perfectly with the innovative style that Cava brings to the table. D.U.S.T. who shows to be a South African MC holds his own with Cava dropping in between verses with hooks  will have you turning the track up and wearing out the repeat button.

Though destined not to be boxed in Cava gives us “Last Days” featuring indie hip hop rapper Zion which makes a laid back vibe asking the all important question, “If these are the last days of your life – what are you going to do to change? If this is all you’re living for – you better start today.” The keyboard in the background with the help of Zion will leave you in a trance.

Only 11 tracks deep, which consist of an interlude and a short intro is the only real short coming of this album. While this is her first album we can only hope and pray that we get more from this talented artist. One thing is for sure though before popping in this album make sure your repeat button is working because you WILL be hitting it more than once – which is rare in this industry.
