            Album Review: @rhyslangston.bsky.social - Pale Black Negative
Rhys Langston’s “rapper’s singer-songwriter record” is a boundary blurring opus as his lyrical flair is met with an emotive immediacy, amidst inventive, convention-defying compositions.

                Rhys Langston Is Too F*cking Weird For Genres
                Between playing a dead guy’s clarinet and releasing his newest album, ‘Pale Black Negative,’ LA polymath Rhys Langston breaks down his creative world for POW.
            
        
    
    
            Rhys Langston made one of the best albums of the year with "Pale Black Negative."
He spoke to Kevin Crandall about genre abolition, learning to play the clarinet, the ICE Raids in LA, coping with grief, collabs with Mike Eagle & more.

            @rhyslangston.bsky.social’s new Pale Black Negative LP is terrific
The live instrumentation, all self-played is routinely warm and inviting
The singer-songwriter meets rap ethos of the record leads to some truly beautiful slices of melodic sweetness
With thoughtful lyrical vulnerability to boot 🙏🏽

            I am also open to maybe submitting my poetry manuscript elsewhere
I've only pivoted to this possibility of self-publishing because having several completed full-length drafts of my book since 2023, it feels damning to wait 3-6 months for rejections w/o real critique given back

Therefore, I'm seeking someone (who will be paid) who has experience copyediting (language) poetry 
so I can self-publish
