Rome – Dedication
Rome Ramirez has been busy. Colorado Music Buzz did a feature on him prior to Sublime With Rome’s performance in Colorado Springs back in March, and now he is back on our radar with a solo EP entitled Dedication.
Rome’s own style shows through here much more than it did on the Yours Truly record that SWR put out, and he doesn’t have to live up to the bar of anyone else. The song “Seasons” defines Rome’s own style-; musically, more rock than reggae; lyrically, more singer-songwriter than hip-hop/dub. The entire EP showcases strong and prominent vocal harmonies and maintains an upbeat, very happy, island-type acoustic rock sound. Very easy to get into, although the lyrics generally fail to stray off the subject of love and relationships, and I came out of listening to the record very content, relaxed and happy.
Time will tell if Rome is able to stand still in the spotlight on his own two feet, but the style he portrays on this EP is a great start.
