Van Hunt "Popular" - it's great!

Got hold of a promo copy of this album from a certain auction site and I tell ya, it's his best yet, peeps will NOT be disappointed...a bit less rocky than usual but very Sly-ish in places...

If the album is everything like 'The Lowest 2 Of My Desires' (one of his songs on myspace) I'll be extremely happy!

I don't see what's so great about Van Hunt. He's just another completely mediocre neo-soul act rolleyes
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Dude, are you serious? Van Hunt has got loads of talent, he may not show it all on record cause non of the actual songs are how he wanted them to be. That's Capitol records for ya. But if you've heard the original mixes as well as tunes from his new album you'll realise that he is no slouch.
And for the record he aint neo-soul either Van Hunt is Funk and Rock. The neo-soul label is there cause there's just no way a brother is gonna get any radio play under the funk/rock label these days.
Don't tell me you can't see any difference between Van Hunt and music Soulchild. biggrin

His album "On the Jungle Floor" took him out of your category. Revisit that disc.

I don't consider him neo-soul at all. While I think he has more to offer I find what he's done so far pretty satisfying. I ain't complaining. music

look for it in 2008, spring

Popular Machine was released a few weeks back on iTunes, something tells me that copy that was purchased is bootlegged...

as far as i've heard nothing's been sent to the press
and that info came from Van himself... so shrug

but yes, for about 5 songs, it sounds pretty tight already.



and whoever said Van was neo-soul? come correct people.
