“This Southern-bred singer-songwriter and his stalwart band play with an aplomb that could raise the corpses of Marley and Hendrix. No $h!t… To label them simply neo-soul would be downright reductive.” – Metro Times (Detroit, Michigan)

*********
Church-trained, Southern bred, reborn urban dread, NADIR (meaning RARE and UNIQUE) is a clear and resonant new voice of cultural change.
Producer, singer-songwriter and activist Jonah Nadir Omowale brings us an undeniable musical message, steeped in both tradition and innovation.
His music, called Distorted Soul, is a revolutionary soul music hybrid that incorporates elements of jazz, rock, blues, funk, folk and hip-hop "in such a delectable manner that his musical renditions are certain to satisfy any musical palate."
Distorted Soul 2.0 is an award-winning, ground-breaking album that has received rave reviews from critics and listeners alike.
Chris Rizik of Soultracks.com says "The praise is well deserved, as this is absolutely infectious urban rock, calling to mind the better moments of artists from Ernie Isley to Lenny Kravitz."
Dirk Binsau, publisher of the website Jazz-Not-Jazz.com, believes NADIR "has really developed a sound and style of his own and Distorted Soul 2.0 is very different from what I’ve heard in a long time and that’s what makes this album special."

Cool. Very Cool...
author: Gina R JohnsonI first heard this dude on Adam Curry's Daily Source Code podcast, and I ordered the CD, just on the strength of the song "Slave". I do not regret the purchase, and he's on the rise, so get hold of this music while it's on the "ground floor".
