Album DescriptionCurrent Biography • Liner Notes 


Besides Looptroop’s relentless touring schedule, in the past two years Promoe has managed another trip through Europe (by Interrail) plus writing-, recording-, and plain chilling journeys to Jamaica, Cuba and Morocco. All the while living in both Granada, Spain and Uppsala, Sweden. All this running and moving back and forth and all over are some of the reasons why Promoe's new, and second solo-, album is called "The Long Distance Runner". It has also put a stamp on the sound of the album.

With four songs recorded in Jamaica (In the jungle, Justice, Fast food world and Mah grrrl) and three more sounding like they could have been (Fit you haffi fit, Likkle supm supm and Dog day afternoon) the vibe is clearly very reggae. Two, out of three, Embee tracks however set the pace by starting (Long distance runner) and ending off (Calm down) the album. The topics are mainly political, ranging from food to war and from love to graffiti (These walls don't lie - the sureshot hit single produced by Dj Large, coming with a video from the same director's (Stylewar) that made Looptroop's Fly away). Other producers on the album are Breakmecanix, Chilly, Perry Roman and John John, and the guest artists are Anthony B, Bushman, Chords, Cosmic, Ghost, Rantoboko, Timbuktu and Ward 21.

This great variety of artists, producers, topics and countries have created a total sum of twelve (thirteen counting Embee's emotional intro) great songs all running in the same direction, but in their own style, pace and fashion... All of them worthy of your close attention. You'll be doing yourself a favour too. Run out and get it now!
