“For the past 10 years, this album has been hand crafted with one intention: a personal challenge to myself to create my best work. To do on my last what I was unable to do on my first,” it reads.
“I had no way of knowing how much time, focus and energy it would eventually take to achieve this, but despite the countless challenges along the way, I knew in my heart I would one day get to the finish line. I owed it first and foremost to myself. And secondly, I owed it to hip-hop.”
“I persevere through the worst / My thirst to adhere is a curse / My life, I see it in reverse,” he begins, as he pictures his life in reverse, from his death to his birth.
