Me too. He’s an underrated feature guy. He always brings his A-game on those. You hear the Love Means joint he and Roc Marci did? That’s one of my favorites.

I don’t know how the whole album will sound but I’ve heard Scrape the Bowl and Surf and Turf, and they’re really dope. The Speed Demon Freestyle is cool. I like it more than most of what was on that Boldface EP.

Based on the cover art I’m expecting Alc to be in his prog rock bag on this




And speaking of Evidence I was just on this heavy last month

Not even a little bit what I expected the artwork to look like. No offense to Boldy but it looks more like an Alc cover for one of his EPs than a Boldy James cover.

But obviously I'm in. I've heard 3 joints and all 3 are dope.

Yeah hes been doing that random collage art for a while now, the first time I remember seeing it was Russian Roulette I think. I'm not a big fan but I think he said in an interview how it's an easy way for him to save money.

Hopefully they do some physical merch for this project.

Can't wait for this. M1CS was underrated.

 

[Recca Gatsby]

Ready for this

 

[TheDarceKnight]

Can't wait for this. M1CS was underrated.

Agreed on both. I did NOT like that EP in December they dropped except for that First Offense joint but whatever.

Hopefully they saved the heat for this album. Guest list looks immaculate too. Benny. Gibbs. Evidence. Staples. Not a long guest list but that’s a solid 4.

All 3 songs I’ve heard too have real solid drums.

Boldy James is nice. What's his best joint?
