Closure - Chima Anya


So I may be a week or so late on this one but I had to bring this to your attention.  Chima Anya is ridiculously under-rated and somewhat of an anomaly.  Not only is he a gifted wordsmith, he's a Doctor by profession.  That's right, he's officially Chima Anya PhD!  The Nigerian born, Oxford raised and now London based MC recently dropped his latest project as a free download.  Weighing in at 17 tracks, "Closure" finds Anya true to form, delivering potent poetry throughout with personal stand-outs being "What Now" and the Soweto Kinch and Mr Mann assisted "And We Back".  On "Stop Cryin" (the video below), Chima uses Flako's soulful "Colours Of Love" to address the ever relatable traumas/ stresses of lost love. 



"Closure" is an eclectic listen, spanning a range of sounds that cover original productions, live performances and re-dubs of tracks from the likes of Lil' Wayne and Lloyd Banks.  When something's available for nothing it's always worth at least a listen but "Closure" is definitely one of those projects that will be a valuable addition to your music collection.
