Stryk Releases Debut AlbumThe talented musician from Newark, New Jersey is set to release his exciting debut album, a move which will thrill his army of fans across the world.
By: Keen Peak The album, ‘Thorough’ The album was recorded at Colorado Sounds in Denver, Colorado, and its creation was supported by composer, arranger, producer, songwriter, and CEO of Keen Peek Inc. Records, Ricky Delaney, who has been a crucial element in the development in the creation of the ‘Thorough’ The theme of the album underlies the changes that Stryk has gone through over recent years, the biggest of which being able to understand that the only way to reach his fans is to be ‘thorough’ ‘Thorough’ Stryk has said of his work: “I was brought up in an array of environments. My mother moved us a round a lot, so I’ve lived in the hood, the burbs, in rural areas, then back to the hood. Because of to the lack of stability, I felt that the only thing that I could control was my ability to write music. I wrote my first song at the age of seven. My older brother still sings it until this day. At the age of seventeen I signed my first record deal with My Planet Records, an Indie Label out of Cincinnati, Ohio. I toured and was featured on two of the albums published by the label. The first time I realized that fans were reciting my lyrics was amazing and that was the real changing point for me.” “Since then, my style has developed and I’ve incorporated other sounds and genres which have all made their way into ‘Thorough’ With a CD collection that takes up an entire room, Stryk refuses to restrict his influences to one genre. Instead, he has been influenced by numerous artists and genres of music from across the globe, including Sam Cook, Nas, Jay Z, Notorious Big, Tupac, AZ, Mobb Deep, Snoop Dogg, Bob Marley, Ray Charles, John Coltrane, Howlin’ Wolf, and Stevie Wonder amongst many others. Stryk does not shy away from including the harsh reality of what people go through on a daily basis, reflecting what he has actually experience.
