"Brutha" Worth a Listen

By Eleadah Clack

Brutha is a new R&B group that mirrors the style and lyricism of the Jackson Five, and Boyz to Men. But apart from the dancing and on-point harmonies, Jacob, Anthony, Grady, Jared, and Cheyenne aka Poppa, have a secret weapon; they're real brothers. They really only 5 of 13 from the Harell tribe, but they take their family ties seriously. Their first single, "I Can't Hear The Mu¬sic", debuted on BET, also the host of their reality show "Brother To Brutha". Brutha's single, featuring Fabolous, is an upbeat tune about the effects of a female intrest while in a club scene. The video is equally entertaining. The brothers' 5-part harmony and hip-hop dance moves capture the attention of the audience.
Along with a record deal with Def Jam and the release of their first album on December 23rd, Brutha also has numerous videos on YouTube. In a series of videos called The Brutha Aca¬pella Movement, the musicians broad¬cast their singing skills to the world. From the sound of their single and the response to their reality show, the album "Brutha" will be a hot commodity on the 23rd.
