Bob's Son: R.A.P. Ferreira in the Garden Level Cafe of the Scallops Hotel cover art

A concept album inspired by the life and work of beat poet Bob Kaufman, blending surrealist imagery with philosophical inquiries. The production, handled by Ferreira himself under the Scallops Hotel moniker, emphasizes a DIY aesthetic with crackling jazz samples and minimalist structures. It continues the artist's tradition of challenging traditional rap songcraft through spoken word and stream-of-consciousness delivery.
