What if I told you that we’ve got some of that ILL hip-hop soul-funk for you? What if I told you it’s a free download? Word. The Honorable Sleaze has let loose his latest gem on blocSonic for your downloading pleasure. Fifteen essential tracks deep, “This Funk” is packed with grown folks music that makes no attempt to box itself into modern, mainstream hip-hop clichés.

The Honorable Sleaze comes to you from the talented Richmond, Virginia based Just Plain Sounds crew. The same crew that includes blocSonic fam: Just Plain Ant, Joey Ripps & Friends, or whatever! With each release Sleaze drops, he’s continually stepping up his game by refining his unique vocal delivery. With “This Funk”, Sleaze’s delivery and production skills have matured greatly. Gems such as “My Treat (Featuring Joey Ripps)”, “The Happening”, “Tip Top”, “Too Much”, the Just Plain Ant co-produced “Better Days”, “The Last One” & the HELLA-FUNKY “Prolific”… make the new album a must hear for heads who fiend for that good ish.
The Honorable Sleaze sure has cooked up something special and we can’t wait for you to enjoy it! Thanks again for downloading! Remember, keep the music moving… share it… blog it… podcast it! If you’re in radio… support truly independent music and broadcast it!
