"I'm here to show some support and give the same amount of love that this incredible band has given to me. You sound amazing." - DR. DRE (The Invisible Man concert, 20th November 2015)
With "The Invisible Man: An Orchestral Tribute to Dr. Dre" multi-instrumentalist and producer Sly5thAve releases one of his most accomplished works to date. The album comes from a place of collaboration and pioneers an openness to improvisation and experimentation, resulting in a collection of visionary jazz cross-over tributes to Dr. Dre's work.
A significant marker of the collaborative process can be heard in the many link-ups and vocal features which hit home throughout the record; from Will "Quantic" Holland ('The Edge') and Marc de Clive-Lowe ('Drelude for Woo') to Jimetta Rose ('Let Me Ride') and Melissa McMillan ('I'd Rather Be With You'), each significantly contributing to the album's rhythmic and melodic flair.
Honing many of his chops through former projects and on the road as a session musician, Sly5thAve has also worked as a collaborator and session musician with such legendary and established artists such as; Prince, Stevie Wonder, Janelle Monáe and Quantic.
