There are fortunately a lot of jazz musicians working to revitalize the idiom by pushing it into new and exciting places, and there are few of them doing that as aggressively and compellingly as Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah. He is a two-time Edison Award winning and Grammy Award nominated jazz trumpeter, composer and producer. “Ruler Rebel” is his first in a three-album series collectively titled “The Centennial Trilogy”.

The series is, at its core, a sobering re-evaluation of the social political realities of the world through sound. It speaks to a litany of issues that continue to plague our collective experiences. Slavery in America via the Prison Industrial Complex, Food Insecurity, Xenophobia, Immigration, Climate Change, Sexual Orientation, Gender Equality, Fascism and the return of the Demagogue.

The first release in the trilogy, Ruler Rebel, vividly depicts Adjuah’s new vision and sound – revealing Adjuah to the listener in a way never heard before via a completely new production methodology that Stretches Trap Music with West African and New Orleanian Afro-Native American styles.
