WCPO Lounge Acts's video: Sons of Silverton - Full Performance WCPO Lounge Acts

“Silverton’s a place, just like Brooklyn is a place.” That's the message at the heart of Sons of Silverton’s music. https://SonsOfSilverton.com https://WCPO.com/LoungeActs Emcees KyleDavid and Citoak have been in Cincinnati’s hip-hop scene separately for decades with acts like The Five Deez and The Watusi Tribe. But making music together didn't start until more recently, when KyleDavid rapped on solo Citoak single. “In the process of doing that, Sons of Silverton just worked its way in,” Citoak explained. “It felt right.” “We all have varied histories,” KyleDavid said. “It just made sense for us to come together.” Since then, Sons of Silverton released “Or Forever Hold Your Peace” in 2017, and their latest album, “GodGotUs”, which dropped in 2021. On the title track “GodGotUs,” Son of Silverton’s chanting chorus creates a driving energy of confidence and motivation. For KyleDavid, it expresses positive momentum. “You continue moving forward and keep driving and eventually things will work out in your favor,” he said of the song. The track serves as a history lesson in Cincinnati hip-hop, dropping long-gone venue names like Ripley’s and Sudsy’s. The music video for the song was filmed at The Lodge KY, the same venue as their WCPO Lounge Acts. The video also features a giant cutout of Ohio. “Ohio is a hidden gem,” KyleDavid said. “We want to take the responsibility and onus of representing not only Silverton but Cincinnati and Ohio, and show the world there’s some talent dope hip artists from this area” For their WCPO Lounge Acts session, Sons of Silverton performed “GodGotUs” and more songs from both albums.
