Kular Of My Skin - Theron RJ (Pop/R&B) Theron RJ joins our blog this week with latest track “Kular Of My Skin”, a funky cut that wastes no time getting right to business. With seductive David Bowie-esque vocals, Theron RJ lays his silky baritone over a full on jam session, complete with guitar and bass licks, horn stabs and some smokey sax lines, describing a story of racial identity. The artist tells us the track is a contemplation of a time when black skin was considered ugly and dirty. But this heavy social commentary is made accessible over the catchiness of the tune, just as the best socially conscious songs do. In sum, this one is as toe tapping as it is thoughtful.
Best Lyric: “The color of my skin, can’t tell you how I am feeling deep down within.”
