Is The Unsung Hero

Colin Munroe kicks off December with the release of Colin Munroe is the Unsung Hero, available for download today (Dec 1st) on www.unsunghero.tv and OnSMASH. The free mixtape offers a glimpse into the world of this young, up-and-coming talent whose highly anticipated debut album Don’t Think Less of Me drops in early 2009 via Universal Motown. Free from the confines of one particular genre, Colin fuses aspects of rock, pop, hip-hop and electronic music demonstrating his talent as both a musician and a producer. Created in partnership with Sickamore & The Famous Firm, Colin Munroe is the Unsung Hero was crafted over a two-month period in Dallas Austin’s Atlanta-based recording studio. The project includes appearances by Wale, Mickey Factz, Joell Ortiz, Blaqstarr and Skyzoo and showcases Colin’s wide-ranging influences, from a revox of Bob Dylan’s “Who Killed Davey Moore” to a remake of Q-Tip’s J. Dilla-produced track “Fever.” Munroe supplied the bulk of the production with additional contributions by Detroit’s Black Milk and Dallas Austin.
