(July 17, 2017) When a player gets caught, the result can be painful. Or in the case of the man in Bruce Mississippi Johnson’s new song, “No Good,” double-painful.
Born in Mississippi, in America’s deep south, submerged in the music of his Grandfather’s church from a young age, Bruce was brought up on a musical diet of Al Green, Jackie Wilson (his Cousin), Lou Rawls and Gil Scott-Heron, and that is pretty much the history you would expect when you hear his voice, a rich baritone, thick with life lessons.
Now settled in London, Mississippi Johnson has recently released the album, The Deal Baby. And he leads the disc off with the aforementioned “No Good,” a story about a player who gets caught in his own game…and ends up with nothing. But while the story is about an affair gone wrong, the song itself is a winner.
Check out the talented Mr. Johnson below, and tell us what you think!
