Qbala- Dark Side of the Rain
by Tim Wenger
Instead of the punch in the face that Fort Collins emcee Qbala has thrown with her previous two releases, Dark Side of the Rain delivers an emotional hit straight from the heart. The beats and background music are very ambient, each craftly highlighting the mood of the track. The subject matter is so personal that most people would prefer to keep it buried down, but this EP shows that Qbala is not afraid to wear her heart on her sleeve and expose feelings from deep inside. The fact that she is able to talk about sex, love, and overcoming adversity both personally and professionally (and make the lines rhyme at the same time!) is a huge step not only for this one rapper, but for Colorado music in general.
