Karen Gibson Roc Is An Astonishment. This Brooklyn-Based By Way Of Jamaica And Canada Poet And Musician Is Fierce And Fearless. A Musical Chameleon She Calls Herself A “poetist” Or Poetic Vocalist She Combines Elements Of Rap Downtown-Diva Poetry Slamming And An Urgent Backing Band Called Fluid Both For The Easy Flow Of The Grooves And The Tendency Of Musicians To Come And Go . Producers From East And West Coast America Germany And Japan Have Contributed Some Truly Nice Beats For Her That Range From Jazzy To Soulful With A Rock Edge That The Hip-Hop Pioneers Used To Such Great Advantage. She Has Been Touring Live For 9 Years By Now – And You Can Hear That In The Amazingly Relaxed Organic Sounds Of Her Beautiful Music. A Reviewer Of One Of Her Live Performances Once Came To The Conclusion That Gibson Roc Must Have Something To Do With The Preservation Of The Universe. She Has Been Compared To Gil Scott-Heron Although She Is Not Political As Scott-Heron Was. She Is A Sloganeer As He Was But In A More Personal Mode. Neither Depressing Nor Conflict-Oriented Her Lyrics Are Impassioned Love Songs To Black Heritage Femininity And Art. In Sweet Images She Is Writing Blueprints For Noah’s Next Arc And Reattaching Leaves To Trees. Being Creative Is Intensely Important To Her And By Extension To The Rest Of The World. After Her 2003 Debut Album „5 & 2 Fish“ And Giving Birth To Her Daughter Jolie Lulu In 2006 She Now Blesses The World With Her Sophomore Effort „Touching The Soul“ Released On Lemongrassmusic In 2008. Karen Gibson Roc Says Her Main Theme “is The Evolution Of Spirit And The Truth About Following What Is Your Calling Here In The Physical.” Her Objective Is “to Inspire Dream Chasing To Uplift Hearts And To Open Minds.” And That She Does. She Grabs Your Soul And Never Lets Go Both Through Her Music Her Words And Her Spirit. read less
