FIXED. UNWAVERING. SOLID. JUST A FEW WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE IDEA BEHIND UPRIGHT, THE LATEST ALBUM FROM RUMBLE ROOM RECORDS' OWN FEATURED ARTIST, THE BLACK WOLF. WITH THIS BEING HIS SIXTH ALBUM, WOLF IS IN RARE FORM, AND DELIVERS ENERGIZING AND MOVING STORIES TO THE LISTENER THROUGH REAL LIFE EXPERIENCES.

READY YOURSELF... THE JOURNEY BEGINS ONCE YOU PRESS PLAY. YOU ARE SUBMERGED INTO THE MIND OF THE BLACK WOLF AS THE INTRO SETS THE TONE FOR THE STORYLINE: BREAKING FREE FROM THE VARIOUS HOLDS AND OBSTRUCTIONS IN LIFE WHICH THEN GRANTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO FIGHT, AND REMAIN "UPRIGHT" IN THE PLIGHT. AFTER THE WARM-UP, WOLF TAKES YOU ALONG AS HE CHARGES INTO AN ALL-OUT BATTLE IN "WARFARE". AFTER THE BATTLES ARE WON, YOU STILL HAVE TO KEEP YOUR ARMOR ON DURING THOSE DIFFICULT TIMES, AND "NOW WHAT" ADDRESSES HOW TO CONTINUE WINNING IN THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES. YOU ARE THEN GREETED TO SIMPLE YET BLAZING DRUMS AND PERCUSSION IN "STEP BACK" WHICH MAKES YOU MOVE EVEN IF YOU TRIED NOT TO!! IN "THE WORLD BEYOND", WOLF GOES DEEP INTO THE ABYSS AND RAPS ABOUT UNSEEN FORCES, THE UNKNOWN. YOU ARE THEN SWEPT ALONG TO REGROUP AND REFLECT IN "A WORD". THE FOLLOWING TRACK, "ELECTRIFY", DOES JUST THAT... IT ELECTRIFIES YOUR HEART AND MIND TO FOLLOW THE EMCEES LEAD... STRAIGHT JAM!

WOLF IS IN HIS PRIME AND IS NO STRANGER TO MAKING MUSIC THAT HE LOVES. THE PROOF IS ALL THERE, AND HE GOES ALL IN ON "THE REALEST" WITH HIS THOUGHTS ON THE CURRENT STATE OF THE INDUSTRY. AND QUESTION FOR YOU... IF YOU HAD 120 SECONDS TO LIVE, WHAT WOULD YOU DO? WHAT WOULD YOU SAY OR REFLECT ON? YOU CAN TAKE A HINT FROM WOLF ON "LAST DAYS III". OR MAYBE YOU JUST NEED TO HEAR AN UNADULTERATED, OPEN AND HONEST STORY OF THE UPS AND DOWNS IN LIFE? YOU GOT IT! "UNITE" IS JUST WHERE ITS AT... SIMPLE YET MEANINGFUL DIALOGUE OF HOW LIFE IS AND SHOULD BE APPRECIATED.

EVER FEEL LIKE SOMETHING AIN'T RIGHT? WOLF HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD WITH YOUR SUSPICIONS ON "CAREFUL"; A SEMI-CONTROVERSIAL BUT NECESSARY BIT IN UPRIGHTS LINEUP! BUT AFTERWARDS, ITS TIME TO HIT THE STREETS AND SEE THE NIGHT LIGHTS IN "STREET LIGHTS". YOU THEN PROCEED TO THE UPBEAT AND LIVELY "LET'S DO IT", WOLF'S ODE TO THE DAMES. BUT THE LIVELINESS IS SHORT LIVED WHEN YOU BUMP INTO A ROUGH PATCH IN "BLACKS BLUES"... THE RIFF OF THE ELECTRIC GUITAR ALONE WILL KEEP YOU MESMERIZED AND IMMOBILIZED... BUT NOT FOR LONG! ITS NOW TIME TO PONDER. "WISE UP" WILL TAKE YOU ON A WALK TO CONTEMPLATE YOUR CHOICES AND DECISIONS IN LIFE.

THE BLACK WOLF LOVES THE BABIES! THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR WELLBEING IS MOLTEN INTO "THE FUTURE" AND "TO THE SKIES". THE MOOD IS LIGHTENED UP A QUITE BIT IN "SPENDING SPREE" WHEN WOLF APPEARS TO BE TRAUMATIZED (AND NEAR BANKRUPTCY) AT THE HANDS OF HIS WOMAN!! ANYTHING CAN BE CHANGED THE MOMENT YOU WANT IT TO... WOLF RAPS ABOUT THAT SIMPLE FACT IN "STATE OF MIND" AND HOW TO MOVE TOWARDS THAT GOAL. EVER THE AUTO ENTHUSIAST AND LOVER OF THE STREET BENEATH HIS FEET, WOLF HITS THE TRAIL ON "SUN SHOWERS" AND LATER TALKS BUSINESS ON "HIGH RIDE"; AN ENLIGHTENING AND POWERFUL LOOK INTO THE FUTURE.

SO, THERE YOU HAVE IT! UPRIGHT IS PURE, UNREFINED, CONTAINED FIRE, READY TO BE UNLEASHED! WITH MANY EASTER EGGS AND TIE-INS TO MULTIPLE RUMBLE ROOM RECORDS PROJECTS, WOLF PAYS HOMAGE TO HIP-HOP AT ITS VERY CORE. THE HEART AND SOUL OF THIS EFFORT IS FELT IN THE PRODUCTIONS, THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL, AND EVEN THE EXTENDED PLAYING TIME... THIS IS THE LONGEST ALBUM IN WOLF'S ARSENAL! ITS ALL ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS ONE, AND ITS ADVISED YOU PRESS PLAY AND LISTEN TO UPRIGHT IN ITS ENTIRETY... YOU WON'T REGRET IT!
