“High Renaissance II”, Gone Wallace’s sixth independent project, is a story about acceptance and adaptation. With the help of production from 9th Wonder, DMB and Charles Hamilton, Gone takes listeners on a journey through the psyche of a young adult as he chases success. The project’s two singles, “We Exist” and “James Howlett” have received rave reviews from blogs such as Womazing.com, Neighborhood Watch, No-Buzz.net, Audio Fix, Robots & Bass Drops, Hip-Hop Life and Times, One Mic and Str8 Out Da Den, to name a few. The album is also blessed with features from break out artists, Key and Joey Mac.
Philadelphia native, Gone Wallace, mixes a future sound with an old school style to stretch the limits of the hip hop genre. High Renaissance II mirrors the innovation and creative genius of the Italian High Renaissance period by which it is directly inspired. Similarly to the High Renaissance period, High Renaissance II deals with discovery and self-realization and the scrutiny that comes with it. Gone, like Raphael Sanzio da Urbino, delivers yet another work of art. Consider High Renaissance II to be Gone Wallace’s School of Athens.
