“Whoever said the sky was the limit
Wasn’t living where I was living”
“Mercury Rising” by theMIND is the first single from his highly anticipated solo project. The exploratory track was produced by longtime collaborators THEMpeople and features Donnie Trumpet and Sylvie Grace with atmospheric and affective cello playing. The song is real, pensive, yet aspirational – it paints a vivid picture of possibility. TheMIND is a significant artist and one to watch closely in 2016. I’ve followed him mostly through his collaborations with artists such as Mick Jenkins, Vic Mensa and Kirk Knight, it is fascinating to hear him make this textured statement as a soloist on “Mercury Rising,” I can’t wait to hear more. Listen to his lead single and then let his soundcloud keep playing, it’s nothing but gems. :balloon:
