Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping out from his prominent affiliations with the Wu-Tang Clan and Sunz of Man, the Brooklyn emcee delivers an incredibly dense, highly intellectual solo debut. The dark, atmospheric boom-bap production perfectly supports his complex lyricism, weaving street narratives intricately together with profound religious history and ancient mythology.
