Faces At The Bottom Of A Well :: Ceschi Speaks From “Behind Bars”

from the digital desk of Ceschi:

“Over time I’ve done many collaborative songs.  Some of these are probably familiar to you while others barely came out or never came out.  After 10 plus years of rapping on other people’s songs it’s gotten to the point where it would be possible to gather quite a few albums worth of this material – like maybe 50.  One day, before i was locked up, my friend Mo Niklz suggested that he’d like to compile mixes of key verses I’ve done on tracks with other folks.  He came up with the title Ceschi Behind Bars, which was just awfully sad and funny at the same time – which may also be a good adjective combo to describe a lot of what i do.  Mo searched far and wide for some of these tracks and had the patience of saint when i sent him constantly updated lists of tracks i was on – even from prison.  Massive thank you to Mo for making this happen and thanks to all of artists who asked me to be on tracks over the years!”
