When Devils Strike

A somber, slow-rolling collection of Houston street rap recorded under the weight of incarceration. Heavy bass, nasal flows, and a pervasive sense of isolation.

The ultimate soundtrack for a slow midnight crawl through the Southside.

A heavy, claustrophobic street narrative that balances neighborhood pride with the stark reality of isolation.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The jarring transition from the introductory poem into the trunk-rattling low end of Day of Unity.

The haunting, high-pitched vocal loop on Carolyn's Hook that creates a sense of neighborhood ghosts.

The sprawling eleven-minute posse cut Dope House Family that serves as a massive roll call for the label.
