Album Notes & Community Reviews

Prompted by news of his father's terminal illness diagnosis, the highly sought-after hip-hop producer quietly crafted his debut solo album in isolation in the UK. The deeply sentimental, largely instrumental tape heavily relies on vintage soul chops and warm basslines, featuring uncredited vocal contributions from frequent collaborators like Vince Staples and JPEGMAFIA.
