Album Notes

Volume Two of Death to All Hataz
Mo Betta is the theme for the Mo Betta Live 365 Pan-African revolutionary radio station. Pandora's Box is written about a brief relationship I had with this sister named Hope and the implications for a lot of what I think and feel about modern Afrikan relations in Babylon is the 21st. Death to All Hataz was actually inspired by the cover artwork on the album. White Pearl is dedicated to my pops, Eulas C. Strong on the advent of the elder god's 80th birthday. Mad love, pops. Ya'll raised a Reapa right! S.H.A.R.P. is dedicated to the organization S.H.A.R.P. which tries to represent for conscious hip-hop. Had a chance to meet them at a conference out West. Hip-hop Intercourse is a track off of a album by Tempt'N, a regionally local sister who's doing her thing. I'm still lobing her voice so I stuck this hot one back on here. The same is true for Razor's Edge which is a new song I recorded to a beat I wrote for her. She had recorded a track Tempt'N on it, so I decided it would be cool to splice the two records together mix tape style and see what we got. Here it tis! Psycho was actually written for this sister I met who was rolling with a group called 7 at the time. We were going to do it as a duet, but sister got bogged down, presumably with the move and life. So in tribute I did it anyway, largely in its original style and format albeit with modified lyrics. Maybe this will be a future splice. Mic Ruff is the first of what will be many records with my 7 year old son, Reapa Jr. otherwise known as Kamau Imani. We won't even stop in the next generation. See ya at the crossroads!
