A 12 song, 30 minute project that embodies his artistry majorly. Phil Rick stands out in a major way because you feel the music as soon as you hear him. Having a presence to him that is impossible to turn away from, as his talent commands your full attention. He sounds like someone who is meant to be an artist, with a rap voice, that can be melodic just as much as it can be hard, that is engaging with bravado and conviction to it that is perfect for his writing to flourish.
