The Presence 04:29
The Presence My pen dropped like a needle drop. My pen dropped like a needle drop. Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma My pen dropped like a needle drop on the nasty concrete ground. So, I kicked it in the gutter like a hoopty ride and kept on easin’ on down the line. Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma Easin’ on down. Easin’ on down the line. Keep on keepin on. There once was a girl from around the way. There once was a girl from around the way. She had to learn to take it easy. In order to be free. There once was a girl from around the way. She had to learn. in order to be free. To take it easy. She had to free up herself. Free up herself. In order to be free. Free up herself Get free. Feel free. Be Free. Have you ever. Have you ever. Have you ever. Have you ever. Have you ever. Have you ever felt the presence? Have you ever felt the presence? You can tell she’s a seeker You can tell she’s a seeker You can tell she’s a seeker By the faraway look in her eyes In her eyes.

about

Welcome to SassaCyprigo! Take a trip with her through the ethereal. Let your balance find you between the Jazz Funk Hip Hop influenced soulfuldelia. It’s a reflective journey. One to make you look over and question the lay of the land upon which you stand. As it shifts like sand.

Featuring 5 movement meditation tracks. Titles like Awakened (Wantu Gotu), CPT, The Hardest Part, The Presence and the more recognizably House cut Help Me See, followed by another mellow-getic remix of Awakened (Wantu Gatu) Lyrically creative the songs are like individual declarations. Proclamations of a soul searcher’s realizations. The processed renderings of inward outward observations. Five introspective songs to be experienced on the dancefloor and in your headphones. Music composed by Afrikan Sciences.

Since she began writing and performing spoken word in the early nineties, SassaCyprigo has maintained an interpretive style that is both abstract and familiar. SassaCyprigo's experiments in music performance are her way of getting to the heart of and expressing outwardly her deepest sentiments about the planet and her experiential world.
