Embodying the late Bob Kaufman, R.A.P. Ferreira continues his evolution of artistry into a charming freewheeling jazz rapper on bob's son, creating music that can go into seemingly any lyrical or musical direction at the drop of a dime.

Lyrically he is in top form, with such a palpable confidence and presence on the mic. It's truly a far cry from the albeit still great, but significantly more awkward and less refined style that he exhibited under his milo moniker, particularly on his first few projects in the 2012-14 timeframe.

Ferreira seems so clear in his purpose as an artist, which is to embody the role of the poet and connect the listener to their humanity and their greater purpose that extends far past the material world.

bob's son really has an effortless way of delivering thoughtful philosophical lyrical gems in a sometimes funny, but always striking manner that is really special and differentiates Ferreira from other socially conscious artists in the genre.
