Hegelian Dialectic: Book of Revelations was released on January 20, 2017, the same day as former president Trump’s inauguration (which was intentional). Prodigy
had announced that the other two albums,
The Book Of Heroine and
The Book Of The Dead, would be coming soon after that, but he passed in Las Vegas on June 20, 2017, from what a coroner deemed “accidental choking” while recuperating in the hospital from sickle cell anemia.
Joe says all of the Hegelian Dialectics were finished when Prodigy passed (the last time they were together, Prodigy recorded the final song for Book Of The Dead), but Book Of Heroine had significant sample clearance issues.
