If harmonic development suggests a narrative, it is a linear one, fractured by the fallibility of memory and the unpredictability of heartache. The lines of ”Wicked Bogus, Kid” oscillate between heartfelt declarations to tentative reassurances of security and a feeling of alienation from one’s own memories.
Nearly halfway through the piece, we feel the truth and honesty of Solo, the potential his music catalogue has.
”Wicked Bogus, Kid” is not his first song, a range of different sounds blending Hip Hop inspirations like Eminem or Tupac with the Rock heart that characterises him are at the center of each song.
Solo spent most of his early years looking up to the likes of Chester Bennington, Eminem, Tupac Shakur and Jimi Hendrix. “Music saved my life and makes me feel like I’m not alone in my darkest hours.” says Solo “I’m just hoping my music can do the same for someone else out there.”
