Album Notes & Community Reviews

Initially causing controversy due to an unauthorized release without Jean Grae's full blessing, this collaborative underground hip-hop album fuses her previously recorded vocals with entirely new instrumentals. The acclaimed production duo Blue Sky Black Death provides a lush, sample-heavy boom-bap foundation for her characteristically sharp, highly conscious lyricism.
