This beat tape was made a few years back when I was making beat tapes at a furious pace. Some are more fleshed out than others, but this one I put everything into and have enjoyed playing it for myself over the years. This afternoon I felt it was time to give it to the fans.
This beat tape has a more abstract, downtempo feel with a few surprises. I was really in a left-field bag at this time. I remember I was doing a lot of work with Armand Hammer for the first time and I was expanding my sampling repertoire to include more free jazz, ambient, psych rock, prague rock and just whatever I was finding that I thought no other producer would rock with. Please I ask that you sit with this record, put it on and relax and do some cleaning around the house, or put the headphones on and zone-out. Whatever space you take in music best give this album that kind of time... Enjoy the ride!!!

An album that was challenging at first but always thought provoking, painting pictures with rhymes over such harsh & strong instrumentals all throughout. Mystifying, gorgeous and intense melancholy all at once conveyed beautifully. I was typing a longer review before I realized it was too long, but this album from start to finish is a beautiful painting in each track. I'd list almost every track as my favorite if possible, so much good to say about the raps, beats, guest features. Great music. darksunq

Sardonyx is one of my favorite posse cuts from a Backwoodz Studioz project. These four guys (Elucid, woods, Quelle Chris, Pink Siifu) are some of the best in the game right now, in my opinion
Whole album is a banger, front to back iativos
