I’m not sure how I managed to miss the release of this mixtape album, Waiting Room by Toronto-based MC, Shaun Boothe a while ago at this point (actually I do know: not regularly reading my blog email so much any more probably had something to do with it!). Probably best know for his really well-done Biography Series of songs on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Muhammad Ali, Diddy, Oprah, Bob Marley and others, I’ve long been a fan of this up-and-comer. Have to say, considering how long ago some of the tracks on this album were released (some as far back as 2009), this holds together really well as a single body of work. With cameos by Talib Kweli, Cyhi da Prince, Amanda Diva and Kardinal Offishall, this is definitely worth your time and attention.
