40 oz. to Freedom

A sprawling 23-track collage of Long Beach street culture. Gritty punk energy collides with deep reggae grooves and hip-hop sampling in a hazy, sun-drenched haze.

1992 · Skunk Records (2)

A chaotic but soulful blend of high-energy rebellion and sun-drenched, hazy relaxation.

Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the heavy dub bass of 5446 That's My Number into the frantic punk energy of Ball and Chain.

The iconic opening bass line of Badfish that immediately shifts the album's energy toward a melodic, melancholic drift.

The sudden intrusion of a scratchy hip-hop sample halfway through a traditional reggae rhythm on Smoke Two Joints.
