Citizen Cope/ ‘Heroin and Helicopters’/ Rainwater Recordings/Thirty Tigers


The two H’s of Clarence Greenwood’s first album in seven years reflect a larger, more personal pattern in society – metaphors for addiction and instant gratification that thread throughout the record. NPR praises lead single “Justice,” which “swaggers with a head-nodding groove and contains a yearning and soulful message of optimism and positivity…he swings for the fences and scores.”
