Hip-Hop and Reggae used to be intergrally intertwined.

Thinking of the days when Poor Righteous Teachers ran things, Spice One, or even earlier to the days of KRS One, will allow you to understand why this album was so necessary.

This album will beat up the dance floor wherever you play it, but it will garner mixed reviews, and here's why:

If you are someone who fell in love with the Hip-Hop from the early nineties era, you were exposed to a vibrant and progressive music that the world had never seen before.

It just so happens that Dancehall was undergoing the transformation into it's "cookie cutter, anyone with an accent can rap" era at the same time....... JUST MY OPINION as a fan.

Hip-Hop music did the same thing in the late nineties.
Now here we stand with the two entities at such disparate odds; and really, if you have not MOVED ON from then, you are no longer progressive. You are conservative.

In Chicago I have a Hip-Hop crowd practically booing me off stage, cause I said "fk the studio gangstas"... and seemingly the next WEEK I am asked to submit drops and clear one of my vocal samples for this album. Now it's like..."we gotta do a song together". Life is funny sometimes.

Big up to BIONIK also, who produced this entire joint, even sang on a lot of the songs...
