Moments Worth Listening For
The aggressive synth lead on Triple X that immediately signals a shift toward a more polished, club-ready sound.
The rhythmic interplay between the deadpan delivery and the heavy hand-claps on Quit Hatin', Part 1.
The way the bassline on Cali-O anchors a sprawling five-minute tribute to West Coast culture.
