In what won’t probably sit well with her fans, Adele is over making a career out of being broken-hearted.  Especially now that the singer is in love, it appears she’s set to leave her music career behind, at least for now, anyway.

The six-time grammy award winning singer told Vogue magazine she is set to take a “four or five year” break from music to concentrate on her love life.

“I am f***ing off for four or five years.  If I am constantly working, my relationships fail.  So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record.  And be in love and be happy.  And then I don’t know what I’ll do.  Get married. Have some kids.  Plant a nice vegetable patch,”

For those who didn’t know, Adele has been dating charity worker Simon Konecki since last October. And despite it still being in its early stage Adele believes she’s found ‘the one’ crediting him for being the one to help her through her recovery from vocal surgery.  A vocal surgery that was performed in our great city of Boston at Mass General Hospital!  That must have been an agonizing experience; almost losing the voice that made you famous and is beloved by people across the globe.  I know I’m happy to see Adele back in action and her performance at this year’s Grammy Awards showed that she can roll with the punches and come back stronger than ever.

I say go for it, Adele!  Love is an amazing feeling, something more people write songs about then actually experience.  Artists are supposed to evolve as their careers progress so I’m excited to see what beautiful melodies this song bird creates in her new ethereal disposition.

This is a perfect example of a singer who wrote two amazing albums dripping with heart break and pain and has now found something that makes her happy.  Plus, the woman is a mere 23 years old!  She deserves some happiness with her luvah.  What could possibly be wrong with that?

Git it, girl.

Natural will also be performing with Famous Nobodies, Retrospek, American Antagonist and B. Money at the J the S (another CAVATA-sponsored artist) “The Last Days” album release show (hosted by JAMN 94.5’s DJ Hustle Simmons) on Thursday, February 9th at the Middle East Downstairs.

J The S, formerly “Jake The Snake”, has been a staple in the Boston hip-hop community over the past five plus years. From his early days smashing The Super Bowl Rap Battles, to great releases like his international debut “Strategy Of The Crown” in 2006, to his more recent endeavors on the New York City mixtape circuit (Two releases over the past two years featuring collaborations with artists like Jadakiss, Joell Ortiz, Nipsey Hussle, Kool G Rap, B.o.B, Saigon to name a few), J has never stopped repping the hometown team.

His latest work, “The Last Days”, explores varying themes of society and struggle but also takes time out to explore J’s introspective nature of his own life. It is hands down his most complete project yet and being as big a fan as I am, that is saying ALOT.

J The S is one of the more fearless emcees I have encountered during my meanderings in Hip-Hop. Release after release, J The S has consistently shown he is not the type of artist to sacrifice authenticity in favor of commercial success.

In seemingly scripted fashion, “The Last Days” release date was supposed to be January 18th of this week, however, feeling so strongly about the recent SOPA protests, J The S felt it more important to delay his release a day in recognition of the online communities concerns. This of course was coincidence, but appropriately fitting for an artist like J. From his early work in Boston Public Schools to countless fundraisers for anti-violence groups all the way to recent appearances (most of them NON music related) at Occupy Boston, J The S is constantly entrenched in fighting for change.

In an era where much of Hip-Hop’s authenticity is questioned, J The S remains an important artist, one who LIVES what he speaks and is never afraid to ask the tough questions. In my mind, this is the true soul of Hip-Hop, a voice for the unheard, unafraid and focused on making a difference.

“The Last Days” is an extremely quality work with a phenomenal sense of cohesion. There are also some great guest appearances including Styles P, Pill and Emilio Rojas just to name a few. Do yourselves a favor and download it below. I will be publishing a track by track review of the “The Last Days” next week.

J The S – Put My Cape On

I’ve decided to join the website ranks and begin to post from time to time. I will be adding my picks for hip-hop music and hopefully even reviewing a couple of albums that have recently dropped.

To mark this glorious occasion, my first post in Cavata history I am adding a video below. The beat is off the critically acclaimed A$aP Rocky mixtape released just last year. The production on that album is some of the finest all around work released last year. My favorite song off the mixtape was “Trilla” so I released a quick freestyle just minutes ago.  I hope you enjoy it and you will all be hearing from me soon enough!
