2024 – THE YEAR OF THE WEDNESDAY WARRIOR STARTS WITH THIRD EYE’S SUMMER OF COMICS!

2024 Marks the Debut of Some of the Most Exciting Comics in Ages — and we’re celebrating it every season with YOU, Third Eye Faithful!

JOIN US FOR THE SUMMER OF COMICS!!!

Third Eye Faithful, by now you know us: we’ve got a ton of nerdy obsessions, ranging from our love of tabletop games and toy collecting to our obsession with record-collecting & tracking down old movies, but you know where one of our biggest soft spots always will be and always has been: COMICS!!!

That’s right, and after a couple of quieter years for exciting new comics, 2024 is shaping up to be one of the most defining years we’ve ever seen for the medium of comic storytelling, and for good reason: there’s been A LOT of amazing things cooking up over the last few years, and they all start rolling out this year!

Whether it’s the revival of beloved ’80s and ’90s faves, like TRANSFORMERS & GI JOE in Robert Kirkman’s cutting edge ENERGON UNIVERSE and other animated icons like THUNDERCATS & TMNT making their return, or the hype (that is oh so real!) for Jonathan Hickman’s incredible ULTIMATE UNIVERSE, plus the biggest creator-owned shared universe we’ve seen since the inception of the IMAGE COMICS universe in the ’90s with Geoff Johns’s GHOST MACHINE: 2024 is shaping up to be a BIG one!!!

And, we’ve barely scratched the surface: Jason Aaron’s UNCLE SCROOGE looks dope as hell, DC’s ELSEWORLDS revival is going to be pure fire, and rumors swirling around the DC’s ABSOLUTE POWER & Marvel’s X-MEN line-up have us so darn stoked!

THE NEXT WAVE OF THE SUMMER OF COMICS IS HERE WITH SUMMER 2024 — CHECK OUT THESE MUST-HAVE WEDNESDAY WARRIOR CERTIFIED RELEASES DROPPING JULY THROUGH AUGUST!!!

NEW COMIC WEDNESDAY 7/3/24: ABSOLUTE POWER #1 is WEDNESDAY WARRIOR CERTIFIED

ABSOLUTE POWER brings the return of the BIG DC UNIVERSE CROSSOVER EVENT in the vein of BLACKEST NIGHT, INFINITE CRISIS & FLASHPOINT PAVING THE WAY

2024 IS THE YEAR OF THE WEDNESDAY WARRIOR WITH ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING LINE-UPS OF NEW SERIES DEBUTING WE’VE SEEN IN AGES!!!

Third Eye Faithful, just like BLOOD HUNT breathed new excitement and life into the MARVEL UNIVERSE with the return of the beloved MARVEL SUMMER EVENT story, along the lines of HOUSE OF X, CIVIL WAR, HOUSE OF M, and many more, DC is not far behind as they kick off ABSOLUTE POWER this July!!!

This critical DCU crossover not only reunites the continuity of the DCU, tying all their various titles back together, to bring that shared universe fun that we love so much as DC fans, but also is laying the foundation for the biggest thing to hit the DC UNIVERSE since THE NEW 52!!!

In ABSOLUTE POWER #1, THE TRINITY OF EVIL HAS WON.

DC’s epic summer event kicks off with a bang, as the combined might of FAILSAFE and the BRAINIAC QUEEN has at last given Amanda Waller the ability to steal the metahuman abilities of every hero and villain on planet Earth.

As chaos erupts in the streets and a massive misinformation campaign sways public opinion to her side, the founder of the Suicide Squad methodically targets each superhero dynasty one at a time, starting with SUPERMAN.

But even in this darkest of hours, a resistance is forming…and BATMAN is out for vengeance. It’s a shocking blitzkrieg across the globe that is decades in the making–and will shape the course of the DC Universe for years to come! Brought to you by the superstar talents of MARK WAID and DAN MORA–it all starts here!

And, rumors are SWIRLING about big things coming after ABSOLUTE POWER that will make the DC Universe the most exciting it has been in over a decade, as the biggest thing to hit the DC Universe since that fateful conclusion to FLASHPOINT that led to THE NEW 52 is rumored to be right around the corner!

Trust us: ABSOLUTE POWER is the start point for a long-awaited return to greatness for DC Comics, and we highly recommend you dive in with issue #1 on 7/3/24!!!

It all begins this July with the first line-up of titles led by X-MEN #1, featuring comics superstar RYAN STEGMAN (KING IN BLACK, VENOM), and joined by a VERY ’90s riff on X-FORCE with X-FORCE #1, along with the arrival of NYX #1 & PHOENIX #1!!!

X-MEN #1, which is the main flagship title of the X-MEN relaunch, and serves up a must-read featuring the incredible artwork of superstar RYAN STEGMAN (VENOM, KING IN BLACK)!

NEW COMIC WEDNESDAY 7/24/24: NICE HOUSE BY THE SEA #1 IS WEDNESDAY WARRIOR CERTIFIED!!!

SOMETHING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN & DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH legend, JAMES TYNION IV, returns to his epic supernatural horror series with NICE HOUSE BY THE SEA #1!!! Never read NICE HOUSE ON THE LAKE? TRY NICE HOUSE BY THE SEA & FIND OUT WHY THIS IS ONE OF OUR FAV WORKS FROM JTIV!!!

Third Eye Faithful, by now, you probably are well aware: we’re MASSIVE fans of writer JAMES TYNION IV, and we’re especially fond of his incredible NICE HOUSE ON THE LAKE series, one of the best horror comics of the last decade!

And, so, when we saw a chance to help you discover JTIV’s incredible work with NICE HOUSE BY THE SEA #1: we had to jump at it!!!

In NICE HOUSE BY THE SEA, no one who was invited to the House knew Max–but she knew each and every one of them. Masters of their fields, titans of industry and knowledge, they all represented the best and brightest of humanity.

So when Max whispered to each of them the truth of what they deserved–to be saved from disaster, to carry on the flame of civilization in a paradise built just for them–they all leaped at the chance. Why not? Why shouldn’t they be the ones to live forever?

Isn’t it their destiny to survive the culling of the lesser herd?

Wouldn’t being named the future of humanity be…nice? With the Eisner Award-winning The Nice House on the Lake, honored as Best New Series by the prestigious Angouleme International Comics Festival, James Tynion IV and Alvaro Martinez Bueno shocked the comics industry and unleashed a classic of contemporary horror…and no matter what you might think is coming, you aren’t ready for their second act!

WHAT’S THE SCOOP ON THE “NICE HOUSE” WORLD? IT ALL STARTS IN NICE HOUSE ON THE LAKE, WHICH IS AVAILABLE NOW IN TRADE PAPERBACK!!!

“Everyone who was invited to the house knows Walter-well, they know him a little, anyway. Some met him in childhood; some met him months ago.

And Walter’s always been a little…off. But after the hardest year of their lives, nobody was going to turn down Walter’s invitation to an astonishingly beautiful house in the woods, overlooking an enormous sylvan lake. It’s beautiful, it’s opulent, it’s private-so a week of putting up with Walter’s weird little schemes and nicknames in exchange for the vacation of a lifetime?

Why not? All of them were at that moment in their lives when they could feel themselves pulling away from their other friends; wouldn’t a chance to reconnect be…nice?

A core group of essential X-Men rise FROM THE ASHES to face a world without a home – and without Professor X!

But when Exodus’s world engine failed, the Wardens’ power fell into the wrong hands, creating chaos and mass evacuation…for those who could afford it. The rest, like Rook, must scavenge for an escape vessel as the war for control of what’s left of Exodus begins.

Yet there is a cosmic vigilante who metes out justice throughout the galaxy, bringing vengeance to those prey upon the defenseless.

Some say he is a policeman who has abandoned the strictures of the law. Others say he is a phantom, the sole survivor of a war-torn planet. And those who have survived his wrath claim he is more a force of nature, able to bend the very elements of Creation to decimate his enemies.

They call him the SPACE GHOST – and his adventures begin here!

Award-winning writer DAVID PEPOSE (Punisher) and superstar artist JONATHAN LAU (Vampirella Strikes) kick off this action-packed series with a surprise attack on Space Colony Omicron – home of the brilliant scientist Dr. Jerrod Keplar and his young children, Jan and Jace, as well as their pet monkey, Blip.

BROTHER DEGE RETURNS WITH AN ALL NEW ALBUM, DELIVERING MORE OF HIS BLUESY AMERICANA SOUND!

If you make the trek down to Louisiana, you won’t leave the same way you came. Listening to Brother Dege, you breathe in the backwoods air, fall under the spell of the swamp, and get to know the ghosts of the Delta. Materialising at a crossroads between soul-rousing rock and roll, eloquent folk, graveyard Americana, and psychedelic bliss, the GRAMMY Award-nominated troubadour absorbs the spirit of his home state in threads of droning slide guitar, naked vocals, and blood-soaked poetry. On Brother Dege’s sixth full-length “Aurora”, after quietly generating tens of millions of streams, earning widespread acclaim, and carving out a corner in pop culture history with a co-sign by none other than Quentin Tarantino, the American guitarist and singer Dege Legg pulls everyone into his lush musical world. An undercurrent of bluesy distortion tosses and turns in tectonic motion beneath bold hooks as his love for seventies and eighties staples funnels into a twisted 21st century take on Southern rock. He emerges out of this smoke with a vision without comparison, bringing grit and gusto in equal measure to Alt-Americana.

During 2004, when Dege Legg emerged as Brother Dege, he introduced his already fully-developed unique sound via the album debut “Trailerville”. In it’s wake, the sophomore full-length “Folk Songs of the American Longhair” yielded a procession of anthems, including ‘Too Old to Die Young’, which Tarantino personally selected to play over a key sequence in “Django Unchained” and to grace the tracklist of the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.

Dege parlayed this momentum into a string of fan favourite albums, namely “How To Kill A Horse” (2013), “Scorched Earth Policy” (2015), and “Farmer’s Almanac” (2018).

There can be no denying that Brother Dege is heavily influenced by the music and sound of the Deep South, against which he rebelled in his youth. Yet even while the roots remain strong, the American guitarist and singer transcends his song another step further into the universal language of rock and roll with his new masterpiece “Aurora”. Lean back, close your eyes, and let these wonderful songs engulf you.

RISING HARDCORE SUPERSTARS GOUGE AWAY’S DEEP SAGE IS A MUST-LISTEN MASTERPIECE OF PURE RAW FUN!!!

Deep Sage, Gouge Away’s third studio album, started coming together in 2019 during sound checks and in small pockets of downtime between tours. In early 2020, they demoed with Brok Mende in an unassuming storage unit in Orlando. They pulled influence not only from the nostalgia of the bands they grew up listening to but also developed the sense of urgency, noise, and introspective lyrics they felt most represented them. Those demos helped shape the songs into the finished record that Deep Sage would become.

Then everything came to a halt in 2020 when a full year of plans were canceled in an instant. With the rug pulled out from under them, their backs against the wall, and no way to change the situation they were in, the members of Gouge Away had no choice but to go on a hiatus. They moved to different parts of the country and focused on their personal lives, accepting that those songs were never going to see the light of day.

But the songs lived as files waiting to be rediscovered and every once in a while, they’d get the urge to listen to them again. On New Year’s Eve just before 2022, they decided to reconnect and finish writing the album with Portland, OR becoming their new writing location. While everyone was in town for a writing session, Militarie Gun had a show down the street at Mano Oculta and invited Gouge Away to play a couple of songs during their set as a surprise. It was the first show the band had played in three years and the live debut of “Maybe Blue”. Energized by the reaction, the band finished writing. They had an overabundance of material, slashing songs from the final tracklist left and right. They not only elaborated on the urgent and abrasive qualities they were known for but broadened their melodic traits too.

Deep Sage was recorded with Jack Shirley at Atomic Garden East in March 2023 completely analog and almost entirely live. The band recorded together in a live room while Christina was in an isolation booth. Her vocals projected from a monitor so the band could hear her. The goal of recording live was to sound like five friends playing in a room together, just like where they started in Florida. Unpolished and far from being over-produced, this is what the heart of Gouge Away has always been.

SKELETAL REMAINS DROPS THEIR NEWEST DEATH METAL MUST-HAVE WITH FRAGMENTS OF THE AGELESS!!!

American act Skeletal Remains prepare another death metal assault on “Fragments of the Ageless” for Century Media. The line-up of Chris Monroy (guitars/vocals), Mike de la O (guitars), Pierce Williams (drums), and Brian Rush (bass) embody the genre, going deeper, darker, and to the edges of brutality. “‘Fragments of the Ageless’ is a pummeling slab of pure death metal,” says the band. “A tyrannical blast-laden barrage of no-frills riffs and compositions. Everything about this album is f*cking brutal and in your face.”

Skeletal Remains wrote ‘Fragments of the Ageless’ between European and US tours/festivals with Emperor, Morbid Angel, Mortician, Left to Die, and Defeated Sanity among others. The songwriting sessions were characterized by a no-limit mindset, where creativity and known genre rituals were given equal footing.

The outcome was not just a definitive death metal showpiece, but an evolution. “We took things up a notch and really dialed in on the technicality and ever-increasing intensity while still maintaining catchiness,” the group says.

“With each new record, we strive to better ourselves in our musicianship and songwriting capabilities. On one end, we’ve increased in density and brutality, and on the other, we wrote a few songs with longer and more ‘epic’ structures.” The lyrical themes of “Fragments of the Ageless” span folklore, science fiction, history, and personal struggle. They were inspired by the striking Dan Seagrave (Entombed, Memoriam) cover art. The album was co-produced by the band and studio maven Dan Swanö (Opeth, Incantation), who also mixed and mastered. Death metal’s not dead with “Fragments of the Ageless”. It’s never been deadlier!

SHOEGAZE CLASSIC GUILTY OF EVERYTHING FROM NOTHING GETS A 10TH ANNIVERSARY REISSUE!

The Philly miserablists are the pre-eminent heavy shoegaze band of the last decade, and any track on this record — the careening Bent Nail,” the surging “Hymn to Pillory,” the bashing “Get Well,” the ballooning title track — demonstrate why.” – Revolver Magazine

NOTHING return with the 10th year anniversary edition of their landmark debut album, Guilty of Everything. Recorded and produced by Jeff Zeigler (Kurt Vile, War On Drugs, etc), Guilty of Everything is a triumph of a debut that successfully manages to be massively loud, darkly introspective and totally beautiful all at once.

NOTHING’s Nicky Palermo comments on the bonus material, highlighting a cover of Big Star’s track, “Holocaust”: “We wrote and recorded this track right before I almost got killed in Oakland. We were out on tour with Cloakroom and Tony Molina, so before Doyle joined Nothing. Forgot it existed until a couple years ago while demoing with Nick in Oakland for The Great DIsmal. Hard to imagine a more crushing piece of music than the Alex version, but looking back and how things progressed following recording, this version really holds heavy weight as well to me. Looking back, it’s almost like an eerie premonition now of how quickly things can turn devastating.”

ALICE COOPER’S CLASSIC BILLION DOLLAR BABIES GETS AN ALL NEW 50TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE RELEASE!

Hello Hooray,” a new version of BILLION DOLLAR BABIES, is on the way as Alice Cooper’s delightfully subversive sixth album returns in all its snakeskin glory for an extended 50th-anniversary celebration. After hitting #1 on the album charts in America and the U.K. in 1973, the record remains a highwater mark for the original lineup, featuring hits like “No More Mr. Nice Guy” and “Elected.”

BILLION DOLLAR BABIES: “TRILLION DOLLAR” DELUXE EDITION (3LP)features a newly remastered version of the original album, along with bonus material, including studio outtakes, single mixes, and an electrifying 1973 concert recording. The gatefold cover faithfully replicates the original’s textured snakeskin wallet design and comes complete with a $1 billion dollar bill tucked inside.

An instant smash when it was released in March 1973, BILLION DOLLAR BABIES delivered a theatrical mix of hard rock and glam laced with macabre lyrics that explored wealth, decadence, and fame’s darker side. Newly remastered, the platinum-certified album sounds better than ever. The set also features outtakes (“Coal Black Model T”), single mixes (“Mary Ann”), and “Slick Black Limousine,” which originally came out on flexi-disc within an issue of the British rock paper New Musical Express.

The “TRILLION DOLLAR” DELUXE EDITION also features a live show recorded in Texas in April of 1973, during the “Billion Dollar Babies” tour. The powerful performance includes live versions of many of the album’s tracks, highlights including “Elected” and “Hello Hooray,” along with several of the band’s earlier hits, including “I’m Eighteen” and “School’s Out.”

This 3xLP version comes with an oral history of the album and the bonus tracks by the surviving band members – Alice Cooper, Dennis Dunaway, Michael Bruce, and Neal Smith – and Bob Ezrin, who produced the album. (Sadly, guitarist Glen Buxton died in 1997)

In the notes, Cooper recalls writing “I Love The Dead” and “Sick Things.” He says, “We were writing those songs looking at each other, and every time we’d write a line I’d say, ‘Oh, this is gonna kill them. Oh, they’re gonna hate us on this one.’ But at the same time, it was almost like an Edgar Allan Poe short story when you listen to ‘I Love The Dead.’ I tried to write that the way Vincent Price would sing it.”

THE NEW MANNEQUIN PUSSY DROPS THIS WEEK WITH I GOT HEAVEN!!!

Mannequin Pussy’s music feels like a resilient and galvanizing shout that demands to be heard. Across four albums, the Philadelphia rock band that consists of Colins “Bear” Regisford (bass, vocals), Kaleen Reading (drums, percussion), Maxine Steen (guitar, synths), and Marisa Dabice (guitar, vocals) has made cathartic tunes about despairing times.

“There’s just so much constantly going on that feels intentionally evil that trying to make something beautiful feels like a radical act,” says Dabice. “The ethos of this band has always been to bring people together.” 

Their new album, I Got Heaven, which is out March 1 via Epitaph Records, is the band’s most fully realized recording yet. Over ten ambitious tracks which abruptly turn from searing punk to inviting alternative pop, the album is deeply concerned with desire, the power in being alone, and how to live in an unfeeling and unkind world. It’s a document of a band doubling down on their unshakable bond to make something furious, thrilling, and wholly alive. 

Following the 2019 release of their critically acclaimed third album Patience, Mannequin Pussy returned in 2021 for their EP Perfect. They toured that release relentlessly and added guitarist Maxine Steen to the band’s official lineup. The band changed their entire creative formula, choosing to write together in the studio in Los Angeles with producer John Congleton, over slowly crafting tracks at home. “Everyone felt empowered to speak up about their own ideas to make this thing the best it could possibly be,” says Regisford.

THIRD EYE FAVS SHEER MAG DELIVER THEIR NEXT RELEASE WITH PLAYING FAVORITES THIS WEEK!!!

Sheer Mag have labored to carve out a discernibly singular position within the canon of contemporary rock: toggling with ease between the refined flourishes of a “connoisseur’s band” and the ecstatic colloquialism of populist songwriting-yet displaying no strict loyalty to either camp-their sound, while oft-referenced, is unmistakably and immediately recognizable as theirs alone.

On Playing Favorites, Sheer Mag’s third full-length and first with Third Man Records, the band capitalize on a decade’s worth of devotion to their own collective spirit-a spirit refined in both the sweaty trenches of punk warehouses and the larger-than-life glamour of concert halls-emerging with a dense work of gripping emotions, massive hooks, and masterfully constructed power-pop anthems.

This is the record the Philadelphia rock and roll four-piece has always been destined to make.

THE LEGENDARY MINISTRY RETURN WITH THEIR ALL NEW HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES!

Regimes rise and fall. Stars shine and fade. Trends come and go. Ministry lives on. The six-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum juggernaut founded and fronted by Al Jourgensen has seeped through the darkest corners of popular culture and infected the mainstream for over four decades, gleefully spewing sonic bile between the cracks of the system’s facade.

Born in the eighties, they survived the nineties, weathered the turn-of-the-century, and even held on through a Goddamn pandemic.

However, Ministry shows no signs of stopping or slowing down-even for a breath. Instead, the band cranks out another blast of anthemic industrial metal on it’s 2024 opus and sixteenth full-length LP, HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES. Green & Yellow Splatter LP

Releasing their follow up single ‘On My Radio’ which reached No. 6 in the UK charts.  Their debut album ‘Too Much Pressure’ was released in February 1980 getting to No. 5 in the UK charts, which also included two further hit singles ‘Three Minute Hero’ and ‘Missing Words’.

THE LATE, GREAT LEGENDARY GEORGE PEREZ GETS HIS STORY TOLD IN BIOGRAPHIX: GEORGE PEREZ

Born in the South Bronx to Puerto Rican parents, artist and writer George Pérez (1954-2022) cut his teeth in the 1970s as an artist at Marvel who worked on lesser titles like The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu and Creatures on the Loose, and then mainstays like Fantastic Four and The Avengers.

In the 1980s, Pérez jumped ship to DC where he helped turn The New Teen Titans into a top-selling title and co-created Crisis on Infinite Earths, which marked the publisher’s fiftieth anniversary and consolidated its sprawling universe.

As writer and artist, Pérez relaunched DC’s Wonder Woman, a run that later inspired much of the 2017 film.

Though Pérez’s style is highly recognizable, his contributions to comic art and history have not been fully acknowledged.

In George Pérez, author Patrick L. Hamilton addresses this neglect, first, by discussing Pérez’s artistic style within the context of Bronze Age superhero art, and second, by analyzing Pérez’s work for its representations of race, disability, and gender. Though he struggled with deadlines and health issues in the 1990s, Pérez would reintroduce himself and his work to a new generation of comics fans with a return to Marvel’s The Avengers…

LIAM BAILEY’S ZERO GRACE IS A MUST LISTEN BLENDING SOUL & REGGAE MUSIC INTO ONE OF OUR FAV RECORDS BY THE VISIONARY TALENT!

Big Crown Records is proud to present Zero Grace, Liam Bailey’s sophomore album on the label. Following the success of 2020’s Ekundayo album, the tried and true chemistry of Bailey and producer Leon Michels (El Michels Affair) is on full display again as they take the sound they established and push it further.

On Zero Grace they lean more into the bleeding heart singer-songwriter side of Liam. The result, much like Bailey himself, is impulsively honest without reserve.

Born and raised in Nottingham, England, the son of an English mother and 2nd generation Jamaican English father, Liam will admit his early childhood was fairly chaotic and filled with “all the cliche racism that happens when people started mixing up in the ’80s in England.”

Liam got his early influences from his mom’s record collection. Bob Marley and Dillinger, Stevie Wonder and The Supremes, The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix would eventually shape the singer/songwriter we know today. Fast-forward to 2005, Liam is in London performing at every open mic and acoustic night he could, hustling with hopes of landing a record deal.

It was through this time that Liam first teamed up with Michels, musician/producer luminary, and the co-founder of Brooklyn’s own Big Crown Records. Liam flew out to New York and those first sessions together produced the now classic tunes “When Will They Learn” and “I’m Gonna Miss You” which still gets spins at Reggae spots around the globe and were co-signed by heavy hitters like David Rodigan & Don Letts. That first trip to NYC brought a lot of industry attention to Liam, including being noticed by a just-famous Amy Winehouse who heard one of Liam’s apartment-made, lo-fi recordings, and liked what she heard. Regardless of the audio quality, Liam’s particular sound shone through-all guitar, warm-rough and genuine soul. Eventually Liam signed to Polydor and wound up bumping against the typical major label industry obstacles. They already had an idea of the Liam they wanted to make, promote, and push. With the typical large advance enticement, Liam did his best to trust that path.

“Maybe I can make it work,’ that’s what you’re thinking,” Liam remembers, “but, you quickly find out that you can’t.” Zero Grace is full of freedom and love, in fact, working with Leon Michels and Big Crown Records has encouraged Liam to be himself. On album opener “Holding On ‘ Bailey speaks to his observations & fears when looking out at the world in front of him and also to the dedication it has taken to get on the other side of his personal trials & tribulations. “Dance With Me” is an instantly infectious two-stepper that nods to those incredible soul records that were coming out of Jamaica during the early Reggae days. Bailey steps into the dance with hopes of finding a new love and pulls us all out on the dance floor with him.

“Disorder Starts At Home” is another close to the chest tune that addresses the difficulties he struggles with from his early chaotic childhood and his progress in getting past them. “Mercy Tree” is a powerhouse of Reggae Rebel Music. Bailey addresses the racial tensions that plague humanity and encourages everyone to step up and do their part to help foster equality. What starts out as a declaration of injustice turns into a call for action and an inspiration for hope. Bailey has managed another album that moves across genres but remains entirely cohesive.

The title Zero Grace represents his uninhibited energy. He wears his heart on his sleeve, he speaks his mind without filters, and he has little concern for formalities where his ambitions are concerned. He won’t be held back ever. One thing is for sure, his talent speaks for itself, and it is on full display on this album.
