Phenzwaan is undisputedly one of the most prominent names in spoken word and poetry. For the numerous award winner, Phenzwaan's latest feat, Solidified, is simply another notch in the belt of a man who is defying all traditional notions in the world of poetry & spoken word. When asked to describe his new release in one sentence or less the lyrical connoisseur candidly says "a consolidation of my relationship with the world as an artist." Hence, the thinking behind the title Solidified, Phenzwaan's ninth effort in a series of undeniably groundbreaking CD's. Solidified, a fusion of compelling spoken word, is an all-inspiring collection of music and verbal dexterity guaranteed to feed the mind and energise the soul.

While each and every one of Phenzwaan's previous CD's (The A.R.T.I.S.T, 2000; Meditations of a Cosmic Wordsmith, 2001; We Will Survive, 2002; Phenzwaan LIVE @ The Spitz, 2002; Inevitable Mystique, 2003; Like a Phoenix, 2005; Alchemy Fluid Vol: 1&2, 2005) have produced a growing interest in the artform that continues to catapult his career towards star status, Solidified is a work of pure artistic innovation. "Making a CD that could creatively, lyrically and musically stand up and represent against all eight of my previous releases put together as well as showcase my versatility and the entirety of my growth as an artist was a challenge for me," says Phenzwaan of this closing effort which cleverly and successfully documents just how far he has come. A fusion of dynamic and diverse deliveries, inventive instrumental adaptation, and creatively constructed collaborations, as opposed to mere poems, the London native continues to excel the parameters and from this album it is irrefutable that he has solidified himself as an artist capable of mapping out his own trademark uncharted territory.

Solidified launches November 6th 2005 at the 1st Annual UG Music Awards in Bermuda where Phenzwaan will also perform.
