about
A unique synthesis of jazz, hip-hop, old school R&B and rock, Amittai Blakk conveys an unmistakable intensity and soulfulness that carries listeners to another place. Drawing from diverse influences, including Prince, Lenny Kravitz, Parliament Funkadelic, and Rare Earth, Amittai Blakk has forged a sound uniquely their own, and one that defies genre… A sound that follows no traditional rules. Through collaborative songcraft and seasoned, professional musicians, this 7-piece, Charlotte, NC-based band is already a “must-see” live act. The first single, Levels, is an explosive and dynamic tour de force, poised to take college campuses and festival-goers by storm.

lyrics
V1st/ Momma got a bill
She want me to Pay
and my woman
Got a frown on her face
Cause she think
I forgot about our dinner date
I'm sorry baby
But I can't stay out too late
Hook/ I gotta roll
When the thunder
Calls me down
There's so many levels
When it comes
To wearing my crown
(Repeat 1X)
Hook./ Can you hear me now
Cont. Can you hear me now
Can you hear me now
Can you hear me now
(Repeat 1X)
V2nd/ My daddy called me
Over for a drink
Now my friends
Upset I didn't visit them
I can't be
In two places at one time
Thought I'd remind you
Cause I gotta catch you next time
Bridge/ There's so many levels we gotta play
But it ain't no fun if ain't no funk in it
There's so many levels we gotta play
But it ain't no fun if ain't no funk in it
