After years of honing his craft and developing his musical identity, newcomer to the R&B scene Gene Noble is releasing his debut EP, Rebirth Of Gene. The road leading him to this release has been paved with both hardship and tragedy – the results of which Noble has channeled into creating an inspirational body of works that, according to EARMILK, “puts the soul back in the palm of our hands.” With his unique vibrato and jaw-dropping falsetto, Okayplayer has labeled Noble as “an upcoming R&B talent you’ll be hearing plenty from in 2014.” With so much veneration being given to Noble for both his vocal talents and songwriting abilities, there’s no question that Rebirth of Gene will find its way into the ears of listeners across the country as he makes his euphonious grand entrance.

 

Rebirth of Gene includes ten impassioned tracks, all written by Noble himself during the course of his move from New York to Los Angeles this past year. Noble says of his song “Vices”: “[It’s] an honest moment depicting a place I was in just after losing my friend and going through a break up, all at the same time.” In “All I Give a Fuck About,” Noble lets loose on the microphone, freestyling his verse while thinking of his ex-lover. “Twilight” is yet another song born of reflections on past love, as is the recently premiered song, “Imagination.” Of all the songs on the album, Noble cites “Wherever You Are” as his favorite, saying “it marks my first collaboration with black violins and is my most raw vulnerable vocal.” For Noble, the creation of the album has been an exercise in self-reflection; for listeners, the album will serve as a lens into the mind of Mr. Gene Noble, a man rife with spirit and emotional complexity.

 

Whether or not Noble will be able to top his debut release remains to be seen; it is quite clear, however, that he has set the bar exceptionally high for himself. The full album is currently streaming on both DJ Booth and EARMILK; go give it a listen. It will surely leave a lasting impression.
