Skyzoo Album Listening Session in NYC

-Written By Big”A”

Recently the GoodFellaz was invited to get an exclusive listen to Skyzoo‘s sophomore album titled ‘A Dream Deferred’ which was held at the Gallery Bar located on lower eastside in NYC. Skyzoo‘s first album ‘ The Salvation’ which dropped in 2009 showed his versatility and from the sound of this album he hasn’t lost his brooklyn touch. A Dream Deferred delivers as anticipated with features from Jill Scott, Raheem Devaughn as well as production by Illmind, Jahlil Beats and many more surprise features on this project (well listed on the bottom ). Track for track Skyzoo broke down each song, what it ment to him as well as the producer featured, and gave a story behind each song.

Skyzoo was quoted saying

If you’re not better today than you were yesterday, you should’ve stopped yesterday. I’m a firm believer in that analogy
