Moments Worth Listening For
The aggressive ragga-style delivery on 'Push It' that cuts through the polished digital synth pads.
The rhythmic interplay between the heavy kick drum and the melodic hook on 'Don't Joke With Fire'.
The transition into the 'Africa Recall' mix of 'Work Work' where the percussion takes a more organic, tribal turn.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
