Ghostpoet's debut, Peanut Butter Blues & Melancholy Jam, is a contender for the "urban poet crown" following Mike Skinner. With its low-fi bedsit production, everyday observations in lyrics, and Obaro Ejimiwe's effortless delivery, its themes evoke post-party 4 A.M. feelings - from the dubstep in “Cash and Carry Me Home” to the improvised jazz of “Finished I Ain't”. At the same time, on “Survive It” and “Liiines,” the album features ethereal soul and new wave indie-pop for a balanced listening experience. With this, PBBMJ joins Blake and Woon in challenging and chill-out music.
