Akil B. Strange and Rodney Hazard infuse their creative energy into one with the album, ‘Everything You’ve Heard Is True’. This release stands out for all the right reasons because it is both fresh and driven by enthusiasm.
It begins strong and continues to build momentum throughout its 13 songs of music. In addition, ‘Weight On Me’ paves the way for what’s to come by drawing inspiration from recent developments in hip-hop and creating a sense of nostalgic longing. The music is captivating, and the rap bars that Akil delivers are potent.
Wordplay that hits close to home is what makes ‘Rich Millie’ such a memorable and powerful work. The experience is one that sticks with us for a very long time, and the words are backed up by a similar sentiment that can be heard within the production that was delivered by Rodney.
‘Serotonin’ is a favourite from the album since it showcases the duo’s musical abilities. They make a significant impact, which allows them to hold our attention throughout the entirety.
