SHAHMEN BLESS, MC, Los Angeles. SENSE, Producer, Amsterdam. The Story: While travelling through the city of Amsterdam in the winter of 2006, B L S fatefully met SENSE. Like two old friends who had yet to meet, they recorded a song in an afternoon at SENSE’s houseboat studio, went out for the night in the city, slapped hands and parted ways. B L S went back to New York, where he was studying Psychology and Film and SENSE went back to work on TheQ4’s Sound Surroundings record and his various other projects. Back in NYC, B L S was playing The Q4’s demo and SENSE beats all night, every night in his Manhattan apartment, writing, freestyling, and plotting out his return to Amsterdam. The summer of 2007, B L S returned to the city of Amsterdam with one mission, make an album with SENSE. SENSE just did not know it yet. The two began working on their second song together, one sunny day in June. B L S casually mentioned to SENSE producing an entire project together, but SENSE was reluctant, saying he was already involved with too many projects to make any promises. As fate would have it that afternoon when B L S left the studio, he left behind his rhyme book. That night SENSE opened up the book and began reading the rhymes B L S had been writing that last year. SENSE had found the words to match his sound, and called B L S back that very night to record and SHAHMEN was born. In their first month together in the studio, the two recorded more than 50 songs. And over the course of the next 3 years, B L S and SENSE continued writing and recording in Amsterdam. While also travelling through West Africa and South America, to write and record their debut LP. After living in the studio for the better part of the last 3 years, SHAHMEN is here to see the light of day.
