I was introduced to Citizen Cope by an old girlfriend. She
appreciated music and knew I did too. So on occasion she would
ask me to listen to something I might not have heard before.
Citizen Cope is one of those artists. At first I didn't care too
much about his work. When you listen to the music, his style is
very different. I would call it minimalist. But after you listen
to it, the structure is solid and has these amazing hooks.
Citizen Copes music has been used countless times in television
and movies. And the times I've picked up on, the music just
appeared so seamless.
His influences range from blues, pop, reggae, hip-hop and
several others I still try to identify. His influences have been
great and other artist recognize his contributions.

> A critically acclaimed songwriter, Citizen Cope’s work has
been recorded by a number of vastly different musical artists, a
testament to the indefinable genre he has created. In 2002,
Carlos Santana requested Cope’s song, “Sideways,” for his Shaman
album. Cope sang on the track and produced it as well. Shaman
has sold over 5 million copies worldwide. Sheryl Crow asked to
record the song with Citizen Cope in 2010 for her 100 Miles From
Memphis album, and invited him to join her in concert on several
occasions to perform it, including in front of 27,000 fans at
the Crossroads Guitar Festival in Chicago (June 26, 2010). At
the same festival, Eric Clapton brought Cope onstage to perform
“Hands of the Saints” together. Corey Taylor, frontman for
alt-metal band Slipknot, has also recorded a version of the
song. In 2008 he wrote and recorded “Burnin’ Love” with Dido for
her Safe Trip Home album. That same year, folk legend Richie
Havens released his version of Cope’s “Hurricane Waters” and
Chicago-based hip-hop artist Rhymefest recorded “Bullet,”
featuring Cope. Citizen Cope’s songs have been licensed to
appear in numerous films, soundtracks and commercials. His work
appears in a number of soundtracks to films including 2006’s
Trust the Man (Julianne Moore, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Billy Crudup)
and 2008’s Ghost Town (Ricky Gervais), 2006’s Accepted (Jonah
Hill, Blake Lively), The Lincoln Lawyer (Matthew McConaughey),
and Fracture (Anthony Hopkins). His “Bullet and a Target”
appears in 2006’s The Sentinel (Michael Douglas, Kiefer
Sutherland), Alpha Dog (Emile Hirsch) as well as in the show
Cold Case. Cope’s songs have also been included in television
shows Scrubs, multiple episodes of One Tree Hill, multiple
episodes of Entourage, So You Think You Can Dance and on the
soundtrack to the critically acclaimed television show
Smallville. A new song, “One Lovely Day,” will appear in the
upcoming film Battleship (Liam Neeson, Alexander Skarsgard),
scheduled for release in May 2012.

I would say give Citizen Cope a listen to. Then again and again.
It just may grow on you if you're first not liking it.
I am not familiar with his demo freshmen shot. I just may have
to check this out. I have all his others' so why not his demo.

A selection of songs off Citizen Copes first real production
project. Let the Drummer Kick is a slow but paced song with some
very distinctive piano playing. A style that permeates his
collection. The repetition ala hip-hop sound put me off at
first. But as you listen it builds.
Salvation is yet another trademark style of slow, acoustic
guitar centric simple playing. But again with hooks that get
into your head like earworms.
This album is middle of the road for me. I like it, but the
other later releases have much more powerful songs that I get
into> I think you'll see the improvement in song writing.

The previous album didn't do much for me. I like it, but don't
listen to it much. The Clarence Greenwood (Citizen Copes real
name) Recordings brings some solid memorable songs. Nite Becomes
Day plods along. Yes... plods. It just has a slow chug to it.
The classic minimalist sound. Keyboard, simple rhythm of drum
and bass. Pablo Picasso follows up with about the same pace.
Different singing style, but again very minimal. Son's Gonna
Rise picks it up a bit. almost a rap in singing. It has a great
hook that's easy to sing too. Sideways, slows way back down but
I think is the best song off the album. Santana thought enough
of it to redo it and add his signature sound. Not better, just
good. Penitentiary goes back to the plodding style. I don't know
why I like this, it's just got something in it. Hurricane Waters
is the very first song I heard by Citizen Cope. A lot was going
on for me at the time. So this brings back some smiles and means
a lot to me. D'Artangan's Theme starts off slow like the others
and slowly builds to a reasonable climax. Reminds me of sing
alongs you might hear in a bar. Bullet and a Target adds some
spice... finally. Another sing along type of song that sounds
great riding around in a car. Fame goes back to the slow
plodding style with a little build up.
