Album Notes & Community Reviews

The highly inventive Detroit rapper and producer delivers a sharply conceptual exploration of America's obsession with firearms and structural violence. Utilizing an array of off-kilter, jazz-inflected beats, the record balances deep-seated political anxiety with his signature dark, satirical humor. It functions as both a sobering societal critique and a brilliant showcase of underground hip-hop abstraction.
