Last time we checked in on SB11, he was doing a dope collab beat tape, but for now, we are taking a trip back to September 2024, where he released this modern-day classic, which is now being released on vinyl. So, what a better time than to write this review now! Let’s get to it!
So, this is a project completely produced by SB11 and features an absolute monstrous crew to match, including:
-Flashius Clayton
-Planet Asia
-Defcee
-Josiah The Gift
-SUBSTANCE810
-Shottie
-Mickey Diamond
-Lord Juco
-Knoe
-Norm Regular
-Cousin Feo
-Flu
-Kaos The Baker
-LORD JAH-MONTE OGBON
-Ace Cannons
-A. Saxon
Yes, you read all those names right. This album couldn’t fail if it was recorded on the streets with $2 broken equipment. Let alone handled by one of the best producers out right now.
Right off the bat, and something I’ve completely forgotten about but is how fucking masterful and beautiful SB’s techniques and craft are. No matter what beat or influence he gravitates to, he makes every song sound lavish and grand like an angel of hip hop touched it and granted divine power that generates from the ears to the soul and throughout the body. It’s nuts.
It’s just impossible to really describe how fluent, crisp, and soulful his work is without hearing it firsthand yourself, but even the small things like transitions between songs or the outros or intros, every possible detail is done with extraordinary precision and care to the point where it sounds like one of the most cohesive and perfectly structured pieces of hip hop I’ve ever heard (and I mean that).
On top of the rappers, does it really need any explanation as to if they were good or bad? If you have any idea that these names are bad, then you haven’t heard them before. Anyone who has knows the answer is EXCELLENT. These names are the top of the list of who’s running the game right now, and so as that goes, they deliver nothing but fire verses back to back to back.
In fact, this list was overkill 10x over. SB11 was on some diabolical shit when he thought of this roster; he was on some ‘fuck the game, I’m here to destroy’ type super villain shit. So long story short, yes, they all did absolutely fantastic! Also, super shoutout to Flu! Reppin’ the same country as me, Australia! Gotta love that shit.
Overall, you can’t ask for a better album digitally or on physical release. If you can, make sure you cop this on vinyl and support one of the dopest in the game right now; he’s not even a 10, he’s the SB11!
