Notable Quotes

❝ If you're not open-minded, open your mind before listening to this album. If you don't listen to albums with alternative sounds and have never tried to broaden your horizons, open your mind before listening to this album. This album is very different, much more versatile, and much more uplifting than the previous one. It can comfort you, but at the same time dishearten you. With this project, I am letting you into my mind again, I am showing you my madness and my genius, my energy.
❝ Like it or not, in 2018 rap is the new rock.
