Our introduction to the world. Letting everyone in this hip hop world know that we are here to stay.
03 Nose to the Grindstone
Produced by WindchILL
No false allusions of grandeur. No false ideas of success with no work. We lived and breathed out music. Sacrificing friendships in the process.
04 Rebuild
Produced by Speechless
Let nothing stop you in your pursuit of finding yourself. Upbeat drums and relentless strings drive this track home.

Creating, like life, isn’t always pretty. Things must rot for things to die. And things must die for things to live.

The lead single, and timeless crowd favorite, of the debut album.
11 Active Principle ft. Inkwell the Biologic
Produced by Speechless
An aggressive angry track from me. I guess I was pissed or something. But the point stands, you gotta go after what you want regardless whether you get it or not.
12 City Under Siege
Produced by Speechless
Society is being held hostage by the profit-thirsty oligarchs and their willing minions. We need to break free from their hold, or so the song says.

An unabashed song for the ladies from WindchILL.
14 Sanitize ft. Money Rhyme

You know what we’re gonna do? We’re gonna clean up all of the dumb shit on the planet. You know how we’re gonna do it? Write a song about it!
15 Here I Am ft. Inkwell the Biologic
Produced by Speechless
An in depth introduction and ideological biography of me at that point in time.
16 The Outro ft. Money Rhyme & Vega
Produced by Speechless and Windchill
Spacy, beautiful synths form the backdrop of the song while the emcees give their last thoughts on things.
17 Prove It ft. WindchILL
Produced by Speechless
WindchILL challenges everyone to step up or step off.
18 Reflections ft. Inkwell the Biologic
Produced by Speechless
A 50 bar monologue that’s as much a commentary on society. Speechless lays a beautiful bed of pianos for the diatribe.
