Cam Be, Oliv Blu and Neak presents Salutations
Grown hip hop music with jazzy mood style
Salutations is the 5th release from the duo Cam Be + Neak, a film called black.
Teaming up with Chicago songstress and former contestant on “The Voice” Oliv Blu, Cam Be + Neak offer a soulful, jazzy, bouncy ode to the Black music of yesteryear.
Salutations is a love song to Hip-Hop, to Soul, to Funk, to Gospel, to the Blues. It’s steeped rich in the roots of Chicago music. Layered with the bluesy trumpet of Sam Thousand, Salutations imprints itself as a groove that can’t be denied.
