Is What You Make It is the dynamic 2023 release from TaxiCab Verses, a unique collaboration between Athens musician Jim Wilson and celebrated Ghanaian artist Kofi Atentenben and The Warriors. Blending rock, folk, and world music influences, the album pulses with energy and global rhythms, driven by a fascination with West African sounds and storytelling gathered from real-life journeys and chance encounters.
This ten-track project weaves together phrases inspired by taxi rides through West Africa—like “Be Wise, Think Twice” and “First Things First”—transforming ordinary observations into compelling musical narratives. Acclaimed for its propulsive sound and intricate jazz-tinged moments, Is What You Make It offers listeners a vivid and inventive listening experience that bridges continents and genres.
