Raspberry Jesus is Melissa Czarnik’s sophomore album released in 2010. I produced the project and played keys, guitars and bass throughout. There are guest features on vocals from Patrice Downey (Stay High) as well as keys and production from Maurice Cotton (Been This Way & Wake Up).

“Czarnik is a soulful, fluid rapper, backed by the five-piece Eric Mire Band. Together, they’ve produced a surprising, potent and thoughtful mix of funk, jazz, soul and hip-hop.”
– Robin Hilton, NPR,  All Songs Considered

“With slammin’ poetry, precise beats, and DIY authenticity, Czarnik is an inspiration to young MC’s everywhere.”
– Claire Ashton, Bitch Magazine
