the song off his first album that blew me away was the joint where he's talking about coming home from prison to the PJ's and how he has to pass the new gen of knuckleheads everyday who get more and more disrespectful with each passing eventually leading to him pulling out the black hoodie and mac and risking his freedom.

it's called 'Patience' the beat aint all that but it's one of the craziest written songs i've ever heard.

I'm sure he will but I played "pump up the volume" off History Will Absolve Me today like 10 times and it was giving me goosebumps.

Dour Candy is piff. Grown on me crazily. Apparently the entire album is a theme for small time drug dealing. I fux with that heavy.

The album is crazy. Honestly I kinda slept on Ka until Roc Marci's Reloaded drop last year. His verse on Not Told really made me take notice of dude. I appreciate the lane he has made for himself. I might have to pick up that Iron Works album too.

Iron Works is produced by a different cat and it isn't as uniformly ill beatwise but it may possibly be his best performance lyrically. at least in spots. a few of my fav Ka songs of all time are on it.

Don't be foolish and sleep on Iron Works. The production is handled by "Yanedus" which is Ka and a couple of other cats. He (Ka) produced two songs by himself and was involved with the rest.

Don't sleep on Billy Woods either. One of the few original artists out doing this thing. I heard a joint with him and Roc Marci a while ago. Real acquired taste but I respect it.
