Blak Gsus
Blak Gsus is the brainchild of Charlottesville, VA based guitarist/composer/producer/ethnomusicologist Jamal Millner. Equal parts Rock, Funk, Electronica, Roots and more, there is a surprise at every turn because quite often we have been conditioned to listen to music that is separate from the whole. Blak Gsus challenges us because parts that have been traditionally disparate are united. Usually when this occurs the suits say “Well what is it?”. Now, I can’t speak for Blak Gsus but I would imagine the answer to the suits would be “It’s music.”
Be on the lookout for an interview with Jamal Millner(Blak Gsus) coming soon.
