It’s Sunday POU and I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. Venturing into 90’s music and sounds, today musical brunch will highlight the brothers that comprise of P.M. Dawn.
P.M. Dawn is an American hip hop act formed in 1988 by brothers Attrell Cordes (known by his stage name Prince Be, sometimes credited as Prince Be the Nocturnal) and Jarrett Cordes (known as DJ Minutemix) in Jersey City, New Jersey. They earned significant crossover success in the early 1990s with music that merged hip hop, older soul, and more pop-oriented urban R&B.
After recording their debut single “Ode to a Forgetful Mind” in 1988, P.M. Dawn released their first album Of the Heart, of the Soul and of the Cross: The Utopian Experience in 1991 to critical acclaim. It achieved immediate commercial success because of its single “Set Adrift on Memory Bliss”. Their 1993 follow-up The Bliss Album…? was also praised by critics and featured the hit singles “I’d Die Without You” and “Looking Through Patient Eyes”.
