Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Heavy Load' is a gritty, heavily psychedelic anomaly within the East Coast hip-hop scene, fusing dusty boom bap beats with distorted rock samples. The duo adopts a lethargic, abstract lyrical delivery over murky, lo-fi production, resulting in an aggressive yet distinctly tripped-out sound.
