Slow Burn is a studio album by Albany, New York hip hop musician Sev Statik, released on March 7, 2005, through his own independent label Pointman Music, in association with Pitch Control Music. While Sev Statik, real name Joseph Evans, had also released two albums under the name Stu Dent, Slow Burn is his second studio album under the Sev Statik moniker, following up on 2002's Speak Life. The album met with a mixed critical reception.
Joseph Evans has been active as a hip hop artist in Albany since the early 1990s.[1][2] In 1997, he helped form the musical collective and supergroup Deepspace5, and that same year joined the Los Angeles-based collective Tunnel Rats.[1][2] After releasing the studio album Altered State in 2001 under the "Stu Dent" moniker, Evans made his studio debut as Sev Statik with Speak Life, released in 2002 through Uprok Records and EMI.[2][3] He released another Stu Dent album, Nephilim: Act of God 1, in 2003.[4] Slow Burn was released on March 7, 2005, on Evans's own Pointman Music label, an affiliate of Pitch Control Music, a musical collective, record label, and arts movement he co-founded in 2000.[5][6][7][8] The album was produced by Dert, Finer Arts, Gershom, The Hobbyist, JB!!, Joey Beats, Relic The Oddity, Shawn J. Period, and Tony Stone.[9]
