Even if I was expecting a lot more tracks, they avoided the almost usual mistake of doing wobbly label collaborator projects with a lot of filling, here they went to the essential. Travis knew how to stand back enough for the others to shine and the featurings to be relevant, without overshadowing the others. The project starts with a very good remix of Highest In The Room, which I thought was basically unfinished, and now I think they've found the vocals and the contributors (not to mention that they've polished the ending too, at the time it made me angry that it ended badly like that). I'll add an incredible mention to Don Toliver who is really on fire, I'm looking forward to him this year, like a child waits for Santa Claus on D-Day. Not surprisingly the production is great, and the guests are at the top (Thug's masterful performance..). A great EP that lets you know that the Jackboys solo will probably make us live a great year 2020
