Culture War
Two years and a name change later, Calvin Martyr (fka C-Hoop) is back with his sophomore album entitled Culture War. This album is a culmination of the frustration that has been mounting in Calvin as he has witnessed the steady decline of any moral standard in America. Overall, Culture War is a title that properly points to what the album proves to be. We know that victory is firmly in Jesus’ hands but that does not prevent us from going through the war that life is. From song to song, the album does a great job of describing the many battles that are faced by many types of people. This album is directed more towards the block but even the burbs can get something from several of the songs. Production quality, meshed with the content and convincing delivery, make this an album that will start 2015 off real well. The one thing you can’t buy, is actually believing an artist as they present their lyrics, and Calvin leaves no doubt.
