Cazal Organism pays tribute to the life of deceased friend Nysmuh Imann Taylor on the seven-track Look Into Her Eyes EP.

In 2015, someone that I cherish til eternity transferred to the spirit realms. The experience led me to new depths of self-understanding, helping me learn how to better channel my intentions when it comes to the art of relationships/communication, and furthermore the messages I intend to get across within my work. This EP is my best attempt to document the growth that period triggered. Other than that, it's on yall to determine what these songs mean for you.
