Sway - This Is My Demo
This Is My Demo is a triumphant and truly British cross-pollination of influences that showcases just what makes Sway so special. Encapsulating a plethora of ideas, originality and creativity, the album draws on a broad range of musical styles including hip-hop, grime, soul and pop to create a sound that matches the freshness and originality of Sway's lyrics.
Sway produces half of the 14 tracks himself, proving his natural abilities behind the mixing board as well as in the vocal booth. His witty flow and distinctive rhymes cover subjects as diverse as credit card debt [Flo Fashion], downloading music [Download], a child's imagination [Sick World], city living [Products]. On one track Sway even goes as far as adopting the persona of a husband within a violent and abusive relationship [Pretty Ugly Husband].
Already one of the most eagerly anticipated releases of 2006, This Is My Demo will be released on 6th February, with the largely autobiographical 'Little Derek' single preceding it on 16th January. After the critical acclaim, awards and talk about Sway, his full debut album is now here to demonstrate just what all the fuss is about.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the end of the beginning…
