Boom Bap / Hip Hop
Fayetteville, NC, USA
After previous albums Yes, I am a Dreamer (2016) and Dream to escape Hell (2018), Dream ‚til it’s over is the final part of Vinnie-Dangerous‚ dream trilogy, and it is a very personal album. The longplayer is a deep reflection of how being a parent has revived the inner child of the artist, and many parents will be able to relate with this. Rough vocals on heavy beats symolise the tough world the we live in, and where we still manage to be loving parents for our children: Vinnie-Dangerous successfully brings both worlds together on Dream ‚til it’s over.
