"Made of Jade" features a diverse range of instrumentals from eight different producers across the globe, spanning the genres of dubstep, electro hop, RnB, pop and dirty south. Throughout the album, MC Tu P utilises a consistent formula - hooks that capture attention, and lyrics that engage. He covers a wide breadth of topics, including bullying, coming of age, stereotypes, the music industry, love, culture and persecution, providing an insight that is both personal and relatable.
"Made of Jade is enjoyably unconventional"
Alex Henderson, Journalist and Music Critic for Ariel Publicity, 2012.

Whether it’s the poignant tale of rebellious youth finding mentorship on 'What’s It Gonna Be' or speaking out against bullying and racial slurs on 'Us Us Us,' Tu P keeps it truly real by being himself."
Jason Randall Smith, writer for Impose Magazine and host for Radio BSOTS, 2012.
