IMO one of S.T's best records.so many bangers its impossible to not nod ur head. it's fresh to hear them update their sounds and experiment new ideas . as vocalists they sound refreshed and hungry as ever. the album has very dark tone and the vivid imagery reflects well with the mystical and exciting musical backdrop. Chemistry is as good as ever with Tim & company flowing back and forth effortlessly ending each others sentences on par with Red & Meth. these guys are fantastic for the culture ! addicted-2-booombap
