Modal Soul

First of all, this album will not be the most recognized of all, or of a genre very listened to, but its important for me, because until today it accompanies me giving me a time of relaxation and reflection.

My favorite album is "MODAL SOUL" by Nujabes wich is one of my favourite artists. 

Modal Soul is a japanse hip hop album, which has a stryle that revolutionized hip hop, being a combination of classic instruments such as piano or the acoustic guitar, with jazz, hip hop and many more.

The who was Nujabes?

Nujabes was a japanese "hip hopper" who lived in United States and was dedicated to create hip hop music, combining all the styles he liked.  Thats how "Nuja" began to create "Modal Soul", using the musical tecnhiques he knew and inviting japanese and american rappers to create a theme with them. Thats why many Modal Soul songs combine jazz-hop base with a rapper voice, which is a fantastic fusion that works in harmony.

Modal Soul is an album that manages to relax you in a great way, transmits you very everyday emotions, and makes you that you have passed a difficult process of your life and what reminds is learning. 

For these reasons i love this album, because it uses beautiful styles and combines them with the power of hip hop and rap, creating the perfect japanese hip hop that i like so much.
