Album Notes & Community Reviews

The East Bay rapper's sophomore release is a violently vivid, uncompromising documentation of West Coast gangsta rap. Showcasing his rapid-fire, dancehall-inflected delivery over heavy, G-Funk-tinged production, the album balances nihilistic, cinematic crime narratives with stark warnings about systemic urban decay.
