So far, I really like this album, I think it's much better than his previous album, 'Exit'.

What do you guys think of him as an artist? I think he's cool, he wants to bring back hip hop, which is cool...no more of that soft bling bling crap.

I think it's a really good album, I'm still not sure if I like it better than the first one though.

He says a line in Emcee Murdah which goes "Hip hops not dead, its really the mind of the emcee" which is pretty strong, but true in that a lot of rap or hip hop, whatever you want to call it, is pretty stale and it is because people fit this one mold of what can get you that hit song on the radio and whatever comes with it.

Good shit though.

"Emcee Murdah" and "The Love Song" are my favorite tracks on it. If you like K-os you'll definitly like Josh Martinez. Too bad he hasn't made it big :( .

K-Os is pretty good, not sure I dig the whole ultra-religious bit though.

Yeah, he is super religious his parents are Jehovah's witnesses and his name is "Kheaven Brehnton". But he is one of my favorite rappers ever, especially in this current mainstream.

Yeah it really sucks that Canada is going America's direction, when it comes to religion. At least people like K-os, Kardinal, and Checkmate see that life ain't so beautiful, and even though they mey believe in it, they see that it takes more than belief to bring about change. Plus it's good music :D .
