(The Lead Lined Wall)

After hearing the latest album, Waterr and Machacha, it made me think, and I decided I wanted to go back in time and discover older albums. Then I found this one. So let’s talk about it!

This is a 2022 album by underground rap legend Vega7 The Ronin and, of course, producer Machacha. Together, they put out 9 tracks and 24 minutes in length, with features such as

-Ja’King The Divine

-MTS Music

-Book$

This time around, Mach brings a more hypnotic and methodical approach to his production. These beats sound like I have just smoked a fat blunt, and now the music sounds slowed down and trippy. I love how he’s utilised this slow, cultural, and damn near spiritual instrumentation, which provides the listener with a tranquil experience that most other rap albums don’t!

Once you take a step into this breathtaking soundscape, I guarantee you wouldn’t want to leave.

At this point, the name of Vega7 is concrete. He’s proven himself time and time again with his genius lyricism and vicious rhymes that can go toe to toe with anyone in the industry, underground or otherwise, and this is just another one of those examples, once again.

Never a breath out of place, each word/sentence/bar and verse spoken can be considered the greatest you’ve ever heard, and I’ve got groups of people who can testify to this level of acclaim.

I’ve never heard a wack song by Vega, and I guarantee you haven’t either. He’s a one-of-a-kind artist, and combined with the likes of Mach, you get what I already assumed from the start: a masterpiece!
