Benjamin Sainte Clementine is an English artist and poet who was born and raised in London afterwards left for aris where he did music on the streets and subways He is mostly seen barefooted in most of his music videos
His Angelic voice which echos strong emotions like pain and loneliness adorns At Least For Now this very wonderful crafted album with the
piano as its spinal which was Played in beautiful crescendo and in an upbeat amidst vocables make it it a wonderful blend of beauty
The album starts with Winston Churchill boy which is a call for
family and loved ones
there say no man can be a prophet in his own country so i
left her i am
And the struggle of
making art and how family can also be a problem and how it is important to
break out to chase your dream
The spoken word and his poetic usage elucidate his writing
prowess which according to him is what loneliness gave him His style of music shows someone who got his influence from
operas and French singers as he often go off with an unrelated sentence like
a related digression in his body of work, Talking while singing
“And it not true that is only when the door is locked that
nobody enters the heart have been open to your demise
All in all this is a great album a classic album if I say so
myself
Te production of this album is also good form the violin to
the piano and the drum coming with an echo of the hats and and you can hear the
distant flute to create a beautiful ballast that supports his vocables ‘Hmm
Hmm Hmm
Adios is a little upbeat beauty singing goodbye lovingly, Nemesis is a lovely song
having nice lyrics like If i held my breath on you I would have died a thousand
times showing that the thing we go after is actually our doom, Man
is like a propane sweating child that is dawn to fire
Condolence is one my best I remember shouting
You should
know buy now that I just don’t care and I felt a little bit free, If you need a
song to lose your mind to. This song helps ease the pressure we face, it also tackles fear as a driving factor that make people do
despicable things the fear of not having money makes you lose your soul. So send your condolence to fear and insecurities because
you done it all before - Beautiful song
Cornerstone is the cornerstone of this album, the center the
mud, here we are taken to the darkness that made this album showing us the
gift his loneliness which played a lot of role in this album “All alone in a box of stone, they claim to love me but they all
lying”
Something we can all relate to, Finally Gone is another masterpiece taking us back to the little boy with big head small ears telling us to know that all will be gone, a call to take life slow, gentle with a beautiful melody that you cant stop replaying it over and over and at the end of the album you will be singing to your self
It doesn’t matter anymore it doesn’t matter anymore because
All will be gone/
