Just like their country western endeavor, this new sound is not a huge departure from their trademark sound. In fact, the upcoming hip hop album will feature the resurgence of Bliss' classic "Roll One," which is probably about having good clean fun bowling or something. In addition, the band will be remixing the fan favorite tune "I Was Drunk" with some super sick beats by DJ In-D-SidJun and produced by friend Flavor Flav.
Taylor Richards, the band's lead rhyme master and sex machine, was quoted saying "We will be spitting some of the illest, dopest shit this side of 2012." When asked if the terms "illest" and "dopest" even exist on this side of 2012, Richards had no comment.
In addition to Bliss making the journey over to hip hop, the band's sponsor intends to follow suit. The makers of Boneyard's Bloody Blend have announced a new line named "Boneyard's Crunk Juice," which reportedly mixes well with "Gin and juice, Cristal, and Courvoisier." The brand expressed their excitement to soon be poppin' bottles in da club with Bliss.
Unfortunately, the transition may unfold without the television coverage their country effort has enjoyed. BET has surprisingly passed up the offer to take on the future hip hop stars - their reasons remain unclear. Hopefully for the band, CMT will continue backing their music. After all, with the popularity of country music sensations like Luke Bryan, Taylor Swift, and Miley Cyrus, the future of the genre is already leaning in that direction.
In any case, the future is bright for Royal Bliss. After 18 years of hard work, the band continues to conquer any genre they choose. Also, this marks 18 years of Neal Middleton impregnating entire crowds with only his smooth, sultry vocal performances - which means the first graduating class of pure Bliss lineage. Cheers to that!
