Fool’s Gold – Ruff Gr8ness

Fool’s Gold is a Fantasy movie soundtrack waiting to happen. The sparse instruments play behind powerful words, giving Ruff Gr8ness’s vocal performance brighter poignancy and an even blunter clarity. A sense of unknowable pain lurks in his voice, and as a top songwriter he smartly builds his arrangements around the unfilled blanks of the instrumental.

Reviews

The subtle instruments and Ruff Gr8ness's singing on Fool's Gold is a mystery box of magical doors and false bottoms, evoking Lauryn Hill’s intro on “Ready or Not”.

Ruff Gr8ness's beautiful singing on this, his most intimate single, has the harmonic feeling of floating in space and a vulnerability that is unmatched.
