Boooom...K-Rino's fourth work, "Blood Doctrine", was released in 2008. The same year that he generated three entire albums from his Triple Darkness CD compilation. TBD impresses us all with his complex concept songs. When Rino gets into social critique in "The World", he tackles the problems associated with not knowing who your father is. In "Long Lost Daddy"he looks at different periods in his life. In "Past, Present, Future" it becomes clear what a damned talented and uncompromising lyricist he is...
Lyrics:
"I feel like life's walls are closing in on me This world put its spin on me, I got a two ton jacket of sin on me No hopeless doubt, a race to get out Nothing to joke about, we living in the actual time the prophets spoke about My view on life and my perspective is that when things get hectic God is not the first option selected nor the second Got a million drugs to stop the pain with and Satan came with awkward language Now he's shocked and anguished hoping that Barack can change it My tainted mind is dizzy, And now it seems every time I need a sign where is he? Called God but his line was busy We in and out of prison, trying to make our living In an unforgiving system that's money and power driven The conditions seems immutable, A plethora of wakes and funerals The frequency of a youth's mind is untunable Truth and falsehood never coincided, just collided How can the devil save your home when his own house is divided?"
The high point is reached in "The Debate" in which a scientist and clergyman argue about the origins of humanity. The poltical song "Don't Like None" and the "chin up" rallying cry "Too Far" show without a doubt that Rino can do an innovative take on the problems of daily life. The many faceted text and his powerful flow combine with beats by Mike B, Muhammed 2G and our very own man from Berlin, Keyza Soza. To produce a rock solid album for the time being anyway, raises Rino's artistic level to new heights. New heights are bound to be achieved, when his new album "Solitary Confinement", is released in October for his worldwide fan base.
