Absolute Power

A 27-track manifesto of technical rap precision. Operatic, aggressive, and densely layered, it defines the high-speed 'chopper' sound of the Midwest.

It's like a high-speed chase through a haunted cathedral led by the fastest rapper you've ever heard.

A relentless, confrontational energy that balances technical arrogance with moments of genuine psychological darkness.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The Falco-sampling hook of I'm A Playa that turns an 80s pop classic into a menacing midwest anthem.

The claustrophobic vocal layering on Trapped in a Psycho's Body that mimics the feeling of a mental breakdown.

The sheer technical speed of the title track where the flow becomes a rhythmic blur of syllables.
