| | T-Pain Epiphany CD T-Pain Discography of CDs
 (30 Customer Reviews)
Rapper-turned-singer T-Pain occupies a genre all his own: "Hard & B" is how he describes it. On his sophomore album, EPIPHANY, the Tallahassee native follows the same formula that made his debut such a success--namely, shockingly hardcore lyrics normally reserved for the rap arena, cloaked in sweat and sensitive melodies. With a penchant for computerized vocal effects (much like his contemporary and label-boss Akon), T-Pain ups the ante on radio-friendly raunch with sexy club anthems like "Backseat Action," "69," and "Yo Stomach." EPIPHANY features guest appearances from Yung Joc, Akon, Cham, and J Lyric, among others, further solidifying his credibility within the world of hardcore hip-hop.
Second album features guest appearances by his mentor Akon as well as Yung Joc.
Photographer: Christian Lantry.Rolling Stone (p.103) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The hooks come fast and loose....EPIPHANY should be lighting up both bedrooms and the clubs."
Entertainment Weekly (p.80) - "[T]here's no denying the allure of his sinuous melodies." -- Grade: B+
The Wire (p.65) - "Pain's epiphany on EPIPHANY is probably that rapping still had his strengths....Pain exercises a lot of latitude..."
Vibe (p.76) - "[A] superior effort....Like any modern machine, T-Pain takes what he wants, strips it down, and gives it the voice of computer love." Purchase Epiphany CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | T-Pain Rappa Ternt Sanga CD (2005)

| | Ne-Yo Because Of You CD (2007)
Epiphany music CDs
$10.59  
In My Own Words, released in early 2006, was a major success for Ne-Yo. It was a number one album supported by two Top Ten singles and a third that peaked in the Top 20. As it kept gathering steam, the singer/songwriter/producer shrewdly continued to write for others: Rihanna's Top Ten "Unfaithful" and Beyoncé's number one "Irreplaceable" kept his profile on the rise through the end of the year. Indicating that he still has quality material to spare, Because of You comes just a little after a year after his debut, and it is just as solid. Though some of the accomplices remain, such as the Norwegian StarGate team (his partners on "So Sick," "Sexy Love," "Unfaithful," and "Irreplaceable") and Ron Feemster, the key to the album's potency and freshness is its differences from In My Own Words. None of the debut's singles were as upbeat as this album's lead single, "Because of You," a sophisticated yet youthful song for the dancefloor, one of many instances where it's evident that Ne-Yo has ...

| | Holly Near And Still We Sing: The Outspoken Collection CDs (2002)
Epiphany songs
$21.35 
Holly Near has made a career out of speaking out, so calling her collection And Still We Sing: The Outspoken Collection seems an apt one. In the tradition of the '60s protest singer, Near has never been shy about wearing her liberal beliefs on her shirt sleeve. Although some of the material dates back to the '70s, most of it has been recorded within the last 20 years or so. The first disc is made up of studio tracks from earlier Near albums, including 2000's Edge, 1989's Sky Dances, and 1981's Fire in the Rain; the second disc consists mostly of live tracks featuring a number of guests like Mercedes Sosa and Ronnie Gilbert. Near's songs and lyrics read like a list of left-leaning political causes from the past 20 years, covering everything from nuclear fallout ("Ain't No Where You Can Run") to war ("Foolish Notion") to workers without work ("I Got Trouble"). Although one can never doubt Near's commitment, the arrangements on many of these songs sound dated and occasionally bombastic. The political causes, likewise, sometimes seem like yesterday's news. Nonetheless, longtime fans, aware of Near's politics and style, will be glad to have all of these tracks gathered on And Still We Sing. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr.
2-CD collection of thought-provoking songs with magnificent musical contributions by Inti-Illimani, Rhiannon, Mercedes Sosa, Brian Lane Green, John Bucchino, Robben Ford, June Millington, and moreHolly Near is a powerful voice for change. After 30 years of work in social change movements, Near's historical perspective as well as her contemporary activism continue to challenge and inspire audiences around the country. The spectrum of her work is staggering. She presents an inspiring and entertaining keynote while her teaching is a mix of history, therapy, and investigation of craft. Her songwriting invites ...

| | Billy Mackenzie Transmission Impossible CD (2005) (Import) Import; United Kingdom
Epiphany CD music
$25.09
While Beyond the Sun was seen by many as a lovely if unintended farewell to Billy Mackenzie following his tragic demise, in truth it was a compromise release, drawing on a variety of sessions and pared down by record company wishes to reflect the darker, piano-based songs he had been working on through much of the '90s, primarily with Steve Aungle. The 2004 reissue program on One Little Indian provided a new way to look at Mackenzie's last years, with the material on Beyond the Sun split between two releases. Auchtermatic covered the electronic/techno work, while Transmission Impossible, much like ...
