“There was an amazing vibe in Stankonia all weekend. Every artist that came through brought a great energy and unique creativity to the project. We spent 14+ hours in the studio each day and are really excited about the music that came out of the Stankonia Sessions during A3C. It was the perfect storm with A3C & Stankonia Studios and we are happy to be a part of it, and thankful that Grooveshark was able to help make it happen.” – SMKA

Production:
Seconds Away is produced entirely by SMKA and sounds great. But if you’ve heard of SMKA then you know its amazing. Scolla takes pride in the sound quality of his releases and it shows. This project features some of the best beats I’ve ever heard him on. The SMKA, Scolla collaboration was a great move and it birthed something wonderful.

Concept/Track Flow:
Scolla takes you into his world effortlessly with each track. As you walk through the journey that is Seconds Away you can’t help but appreciate his motivating and inspiring words. This 14 track LP is an easy listen and has a nice laid back vibe to it. I get emotional when I listen to great music, classics will do that to you. But I can honestly say it takes A LOT for me to shed tears when I hear something. Reflection, did it. I will not get on a soapbox or rave too much, just listen to the track. Hear him, feel him.

Delivery
I love the way he grabs your attention in his verses. Although, on some of the tracks his flow came off a little lazy and disconnected. It wasn’t to the point where it felt forced, just a tad bit rocky. His words were dope nonetheless. Scolla puts your soul at ease with Fade Away. I’ve always loved his singing voice, so this R&B track hit the spot. So melodic and refreshing. I would love to hear more material like this.

Overall
★★★★☆
Seconds Away is a dope LP and is a great addition to his discography. But Prelude To Perfection remains my favorite. Scolla continues to show different sides of himself with each musical release. He’s not to be compared to these “catchy hook” rappers. If you’re a fan of artists such as Talib Kweli or Lupe you’ll respect and enjoy Young Scolla’s material.
