"The goal is to bring back some Caribbean flavor to hip-hop," he said via press release. "I open up about the hardships myself and my immigrant parents experienced in this country, which led me to me becoming a rudebwoy."
"Throughout the album," he continued, "my father [gives] words of advice in a heavy Jamaican accent as I walk the listener through memory lane. This is my best work yet and only a taste of what's in store."
