The Pilgrimage Of Samael Angel

If you are reading this it means that this 6 years project is over and was just released worldwide. All the sweat, the trips to the hospital, the friends I've lost, the people I've alienated, the time that I'll never get back, the death of my social life and all the other crappy things that I went through are about to be poured and transformed into this craft.

This project tells the story of Samael Angel which is divided into 3 chapters. The entire trilogy is merely entitled : The Pilgrimage Of Samael Angel.

The first chapter "Samael Angel" was released on June 25th 2009.
The second chapter entitled "Samael's Sentience" was released on June 25th 2010.
The third chapter "The Credence Of Samael" was released on June 25th 2011.

It's hard to label the genre of this project since it is a very eclectic one. It's more of a melting pot between rap, slam, rock, r&b, classical & storytelling. But we could sum it up and label it African Rap and/or Storytelling Rap.

Before you go and hit the play button of the embedded player above or before you start downloading the entire trilogy all at once, please read this thread in order for you to understand the project...
