Alot of imagery on Stellar Ray Theory
the first verse he compares this downpour to his project releases, with “tapes pouring like cats or dogs”.
The chorus states “shyt hard when the rays don’t shine, nikkas finna blame the clouds or the rain in the sky”
The second verse continues this imagery, describing the rappers unlike himself who do not “shine” and find his success.
The track then ends with a sample from Taxi Driver (1976), describing “a real rain” that will “wash all the scum of the streets”.

highlight of the album imo is, ‘Kriminel’, which is an accusative stab at the corruption of Haitian politicians. produced by Nicholas Craven, is a mournful soul loop, consisting of calming organ and chopped up vocals. It’s gravelly hook sees Mach crooning in creole, singing “yo dim sé kriminel, gadém pa kriminel, sé yo ki kriminel, sé moun sayo kriminel”. Here he proclaims his own innocence, rejecting the moniker of criminal, and labelling those who label him as the true criminals. One of these true criminal accusations is aimed at “Tèt kalé”, a reference to the Haitian political party of that name, as well as its translation ‘bald head’ which targets the various presidents of Haiti; René Préval, Michel Martelly and Jovenel Moïse.
Like that magnum band Is title is a reference to the Haitian band of the the same name, whose 1980s work channeled Haitian culture into popular music through creole lyrics and musical traditions of the island.
The depth that he placed behind ‘Ten Boxes - Sin Eater and what its in reference to (Google) and tying it in with reference like “died and was forgiven, he rose on the third day” Mach-Hommy is a patron Saint”,
Mach’s focus placed on the political, socioeconomic, linguistic, musical and wider cultural characteristics of Haiti. He channels it’s proud and revolutionary past into a celebratory hip hop record that does more than just giving listeners impressive flows or stand out bars.
