Johnny Crown – “Drunk” LP (Album Review)
Los Angeles-native Johnny Crown is emerging recording artist riding a wave with his intoxicating new single, “D’Usse’. Capitalizing on the popular drink of choice, Crown serves up a flavorful variety collective of new songs in a 10-selection menu known as, ‘Drunk’.
‘Drunk’ is a 10-track album that delivers a variety of specialties in flow by up-and-coming L.A. recording artist that consumed can become a favorite or addiction. Tracklist titled after name brand alcohols provide a perfect suggested invitation. Tethering the inception and perception of alcohol is a great marketing strategy and gateway to amazing new music.
