EP Review: True Stories
After finding out about Charles Dixon in 2015 here it's been a long road of grafting and evolving to get to this point but if you were wise enough to stick around for the ride you'll be able to hear that this EP is an exciting step forward for what is set to be a promising career journey.
Opening up the floor with the track "4 Chicks", Charles' flow is very reminiscent of Giggs' with the same witty delivery and killer beat to match. The initial trumpets set me up for a completely different vibe before the bass pulled the rug out from under me. Guaranteed to have your head nodding before long. Also the little snippets of conversation dotted around throughout make it clear from the start that Charles is no stranger to creativity in production.
The creativity in production becomes all the more clear as the last three tracks blend seamlessly into one another showing pockets of what we might be able to expect from a full length record. Closing out with "All My Life" on a softer note, you can expect to see some visuals for this track in the very near future.
Despite his presence on the scene over the past few years, this EP is built to make the listener stop what they're doing and take notice, and it's clearly a strong start out out of the gates. Charles will definitely be making waves with this EP 2018 and beyond. True Stories EP is out on Spotify and Apple Music today - give it a listen for yourselves!
Overall Rating - 7.5/10
