    Such an amazing mixtape. Very short, but the first five songs are all incredible. Rumbling, Deadline, and Sister are probably the best three songs on the whole tape, and all three are phenomenal. A completely unique sound which I think is also pretty accessible.

    The sounds are pure alchemy and result is pure magic. The only complaint is the length--too short at just under a half hour.

    The results are both reminiscent of preceding emissions from rap’s fringe-mentality movers and shakers, and compellingly unique in their colourful fusions.

    Their blend of the parochial and multi-cultural with a hint of dark mystery combines to promising effect here.
