Raised by Rhythm: The Dedication Tape

Raised by Rhythm: The Dedication Tape is a sweeping instrumental tribute to the legendary producers and composers who shaped the sound of soul, funk, and Jazz. Inspired by icons like Barry White, Sun Ra, Isaac Hayes, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, this project channels their unmistakable elegance, depth, and emotional power while standing firmly on its own creative foundation.

Composed, arranged, and produced entirely by Divine Majestic, the album blends orchestral richness, eclectic grooves, and cinematic soul textures. Each track is crafted as a modern love letter to the pioneers who elevated music into an art form of sophistication and feeling.

From sweeping string arrangements to deep bass foundations, from warm analog keys to crisp rhythmic layers, Raised By Rhythm: The Dedication Tape captures the essence of classic soul and jazz production while pushing it into a fresh, contemporary instrumental landscape. It’s not imitation—it’s elevation. A celebration. A continuation of the lineage.
