88-Keys’ solo effort, The Death of Adam, executive produced by Kanye West
has been heralded as an instant classic, gracing a number of top albums
lists, including MySpace’s Top 50 Albums, AllMusic’s Top Hip Hop Albums
& About.com’s Top 25 Hip Hop Albums of 2008. In support of the
release 88-Keys has also graced the cover of Urb Magazine Issue #156.
Featuring the talents of Kanye West, Shitake Monkey, Phonte of Little Brother, J*DaVeY, Bilal, Redman and KiD CuDi, The Death of Adam
provides a narrative of the life of Adam, the everyman who wrestles
with his run-ins with the fairer sex, and the relationship that
eventually leads to his demise. “The Death of Adam is heavily
conceptual (and exceptional).” 88-Keys reflects. “I think it will
remind people of how relationships work for the better or worse. I
learned a lot about myself as I am 'Adam', you are 'Adam'. 'Adam' is
your father, your brother, a best friend or a friend of a friend whom
you've heard about." The Death of Adam is in stores now.

“Next Big Thing" i-TUNES
“…88-Keys makes an intriguing solo debut…soulfully weaving this cautionary—and often comical—
narrative of an unrepentant skirt-chaser.” USA TODAY
“…88-Keys [is] the future, co-signed by the present, ready to rip apart the past.” URB
“…the meticulously crafted concept album dips into experimental pop, electro-funk and classic soul…” INTERVIEW
“For all its humor and lewdness, there’s nothing corny or leering about “Adam”. Rather than snickering
about sex, 88 nails male anxiety over it with the sting of good satire.” DAILY NEWS
