Pete Rock, Lecrae, and Rapsody - Be Inspired - Produced by Khrysis

More Commonwealth misses!!! This joint was produced by the Legendary J.Clyde along with some of the Great L.E.S influences. Pleasure and a dream working with both these guys. I got bitched at by people for removing this from the original track list. I understand why, this shit goes!!! Production wise and lyrically.

Trapface prod. by J.Clyde

Southern Hospitality is that werk off the Commonwealth LP. I felt like Kool G Rap when I wrote this. Enjoy the rawness!!! Peace...

Southern Hospitality prod. J Clyde

The James River, one of the gate ways to the southside district of Hampton Roads. Also a track off the Commonwealth LP, enter the state of mind of a corrupt Virginian.

James River prod. J Clyde

"Robbin Hoods" produced by the talented J Clyde is one of my favorite tracks on the Commonwealth LP. "Medusa on my chest turn my demons to stones, dis product in my pot turn my money to clones" -Manor-

What separates the amateurs from the professionals? Is it their persistence of honing their craft? Their dedication to becoming world class? Whatever it is, know that we all start on a blank slate and those who develop their talents day by day are the ones that usually succeed. Chopping up a Prodigy quotable from Mobb Deep's "G.O.D Pt. III" with samples of Amadeus sandwiched in-between some hardbody verses, "Profreshionals" isn't your everyday rap track. As DJ JS-1 lays the foundation for Ill Bill and Slaine, who comprise half of the underground supergroup, La Coka Nostra, the two speak on life, death and the undead, while JS-1 talks with his hands. If you're new to these guys, know that they've been in the game long enough to have mastered the trade that has earned them the coveted song title, which is available for stream and free download. JS-1's latest compilation album, 'It Is What It Isn't,' is available for download via iTunes, and all major digital retailers, and can be purchased on Compact Disc through Fat Beats and UGHH.. pick up your copy today!

No Matter What (Prod. Russ)

Vic Spencer ft. Sean Price & ILLA Ghee - "Jungle Gym" (prod. Doc Da Mindbenda)

"I wrote this song as a dedication to all the boys growing up without fathers who now have to try and fill those big shoes.  I wanted to tell the story of how they have to grow up fast, lose their innocence so young, and the damage it does (no matter your race).  The interlude that follows deals with racism, and how people of color have to have these tough conversations with their children that others parents don't.  It's hard to explain to a five year old that because of the color of their skin, they will be treated differently.  But, that's a reality for us." - Rapsody
