Have you ever ate food for thought off a flying saucer? Ever been beamed down by a wordplay transporter gamma ray? If you believe in UFO’s, RAP’s and 808s, Aleon Craft would love to cordially invite you to the planet of Mothership Decatur. It’s a spirited place where fun and artistic freedom run congruently in abundance. And in case you were wondering, all the girls in the yard got a “donkey kong” in the back seat.

Forever spitting the futuristic flavor that makes you do a double take on that “did-he-just-say-that-tip,” Aleon Craft is still hovering above the moon, stars and Milky Way since you last heard him on The Stargazing Soundtrack. Reminiscent to when the Dungeon Family used to dabble in spacey orchestration and harmonize in Martian funk, Aleon is crash landing the scene once again with Mothership Decatur, his joint venture with DJ Smallz and SMKA Productions.

Jarren Benton loves outer space as evidenced by extra-terrestrial references from Battlestar Galactica to Outkast on the quixotically titled “A Spacesuit and a Parachute.” Lyrically, Benton has talent and he packs the track with enough wacky rhyme styles to please, even if sent from orbit.

All aboard the SMKA space shuttle. Aleon Craft has crystal clear skies in his eyes as he blasts into orbit with Mick Boogie & Terry Urban for The Stargazing Soundtrack.

Oh, this new pack of rowdy ATLiens. You have to love them because they’re making music that’s brilliantly fun & cocky without being ignorant or arrogant. Aleon’s been winning crowd’s with live performances of “Donkey Kong” for a while now. Now, we have a version we can load into the whip and play extra loud. Crank the bass up, SMKA’s production deserves it. Read the rest of this entry »

There’s more than one way to skin a cat. With an assist in production by SMKA’s 808 Blake, Aleon creates an updated ode to Motown, off his upcoming work The Prologue Pt. 1. Against all odds, it works wonderfully with a mix of harmonies and verse. Read the rest of this entry »
