Тексты песен Citizen Cope
Информация о артисте
Citizen Cope - это псеводним американского музыканта Кларенса Гринвуда (Clarence Greenwood). Гринвуд родился и вырос в Вашингтоне, округ Колумбия.
В 1997 году Гринвуд подписал свой первый контракт со звукозаписывающей компанией Capitol Records, и записал свой первый альбом Shotguns, но в 1998 году компания разорвала контракт, и альбом так и не был выпущен.
В 2000 году Гринвуд заключил новый контракт уже с DreamWorks Records, которая в сентябре 2002 года выпустила его первый официальный альбом Citizen Cope. Для раскрутки своего альбома Гринвуд гастролировал вместе с Nelly Furtado, выступая на разогреве. Отличная поддержка музыканту была оказана газетой The Washington Post, которая писала нем, как о наиболее вдохновляющем музыканте со времен Марвина Гайе (Marvin Gaye).
В октябре 2002 года вышел альбом Shaman Карлоса Сантаны (Carlos Santana), для которого Гринвуд написал и спродюссировал одну из композиций.
После выпуска первого альбома отношения между Гринвудом и его компанией испортились. Возникшая напряженность вынудила Гринвуда выкупить его контракт, используя аванс, который он получил от его нового лейбла Arista Records. В сентябре Citizen Cope выпустил свой второй альбом The Clarence Greenwood Recordings, который был признан классикой андеграунда. Альбом был распродан в количестве большем, чем 273 000 экземпляров, даже без коммерческой раскрутки на радостанциях.
С 2004 по 2008 годы Citizen Cope активно гастролировал.
В апреле 2005 года его песня "Son's gonna rise" легла в основу рекламы Pontiac и была распространена как второй сингл альбома.
В сентябре 2006 года Citizen Cope выпустил еще один альбом Every Waking Moment.
Cope закончил свои очень успешные гастроли по Соединенным Штатам в декабре 2008 года. Сейчас он работает над своим очередным альбомом The Rainwater LP, который вышел в феврале 2010 года.
В 2010 году выступил на Crossroads Guitar Festival, где совместно с Эриком Клэптоном спел свою песню Hands Of The Saints Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.

Citizen Cope is a pseudonym of Clarence Greenwood, keyboardist, guitarist, singer, DJ, and record producer. Citizen Cope now lives in Brooklyn, New York.
Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Greenwood started his musical career as a DJ for the hip hop act Basehead, a group that would have a significant impact on his style as a solo-musician. Citizen Cope blends many genres of music, such as folk, blues, hip hop, rock, and R & B.
Greenwood first released a demo tape under the name Cope Citizen in the late '90s. He would follow up the release of the demo by donating songs to several independently issued compilations, movie soundtracks, as well as appearing on several fellow artist's albums.
In 2000 Greenwood signed with the DreamWorks Records label, which released his first album in September 2002, Citizen Cope. Greenwood toured to promote the record as an opener for Nelly Furtado. He performed at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California, in 2002.
After the release of Citizen Cope, Greenwood felt the label "mishandled" the record, creating tension between the two. The tension prompted Greenwood to buy out his contract with the label, using the advance he received from his next label, Arista Records and RCA Records, to do so.
In September of 2004, Citizen Cope released his second record, The Clarence Greenwood Recordings, which earned him much critical success as well as minor touring success as an opening act for a popular touring band, Robert Randolph & the Family Band.
In 2005, Cope continued to tour the United States promoting his second major label record. In April, his song "Son's Gonna Rise" began appearing in a Pontiac commercial and was distributed as the album's second single.
The song "Bullet and a Target" was played in the end credits of the 2006 film The Sentinel, during a scene of the 2007 movie Alpha Dog, and also during a scene in the ski film Tangerine Dream.
The song "Let The Drummer Kick" was featured in the film Accepted and Coach Carter. It was also featured on the HBO series Entourage during the fourth season finale "The Cannes Kids." Entourage also featured the song "Awe" during the second part of the third season's (3B) episode "The Prince's Bride".The song "Son's Gonna Rise" was featured in the television series, One Tree Hill. The song "Sideways" was featured in the television series Scrubs.
On September 12, 2006, Citizen Cope released the new album, Every Waking Moment. He is also featured on the track "Bullet" on rapper Rhymefest's album Blue Collar, and is included on the compilation Radiodread with his cover of Radiohead's "Karma Police."
In 2008, Citizen Cope parted ways with RCA Records, but made an appearance that same year for Dido's album Safe Trip Home, in which he collaborated for a track titled "Burnin' Love."
His newest album, The Rainwater LP was released digitally in February 2010, with physical versions releasing a month later. This new set was released under his own label, RainWater Recordings. He is currently on tour promoting this new album. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
