Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released through the highly respected Backwoodz Studioz imprint, the Brooklyn MC's project is a dense, deeply philosophical journey through underground rap. 'Only the Strong Remain' features incredibly hazy, drumless production loops, forcing AKAI SOLO's labyrinthine, anime-referencing lyricism into the absolute forefront. The album serves as a meditative, highly demanding showcase of avant-garde hip-hop wordplay.
