Miami's Surf Gvng getting attention for "Sam Cooke" single
THE RAP duo from Miami, Florida, Soul Gvng (pronounced Surf Gang) and
producer Rev Mizz are getting a lot of attention for their current
free download single "Sam Cooke", a song about the late singer who in
the '50s switched from gospel music to the mainstream and in the
process became one of the founding fathers of soul music. Said Surf
Gvng, "It started off from a Bible study on Ecclesiastes 1 at a studio
session. That led to a discussion on the state of America. As we
talked about change, Wolf isolated himself in the booth in
mid-discussion, writing the hook, and led Rev Mizz to create the
cinematic feel of the track. The ultimate want for change led us to
'Sam Cooke'."
