Aggressive Mississippi crunk meets deep social consciousness. Trunk-rattling 808s paired with raspy, urgent reflections on Southern life and spirituality.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from the spiritual welcome of Lost Souls into the trunk-rattling aggression of the main verse.
The minimalist, whispered delivery on Play that creates an intimate but menacing club atmosphere.
The heavy emotional weight of Crossroads where the production opens up into a soulful, gospel-inflected lament.
