Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as a major independent resurgence, 'A.W.O.L' pairs the legendary Brooklyn MC's impeccable internal rhyme schemes with classic East Coast boom-bap production. The album heavily features soulful, chipmunk-style sampling that defined the mid-2000s New York hardcore hip-hop aesthetic. It is widely praised as a focused, remarkably consistent demonstration of profound lyrical craftsmanship.
