Catalog Number: LV001LP Color: Black Format: LP UPC: 784085101776 This album is a gritty yet sophisticated journey through life's harsh realities and ultimate triumphs. Hailing from two vastly different worlds, Fashawn and Little Vic bring unique stories and sounds that blend the raw with the refined. Fashawn, raised amidst the gangs and struggles of Fresno, California, brings an unapologetic realism to his verses, detailing the roads that took him from survival to success. Meanwhile, Little Vic's roots trace back to Long Island, New York, where he grew up with the influence of the Orena family's notorious reputation. Known for his lyricism and mastery of the MPC, Vic's production is the perfect companion to Fashawn's storytelling, layering gritty boom bap beats with live instruments that add richness and texture. The theme of the album is like a fine dining experience--a nod to elegance--while peeling back the layers to reveal the raw, often darker realities simmering behind the scenes. Little Vic's production flexes between hard-hitting rhythms and delicate, soulful sounds, creating a soundscape that mirrors the rags-to-riches journey both artists represent. Brought together on the East Coast by executive producer Ricky Grey, Fashawn and Little Vic spent an intense week creating this project, crafting a work that feels as alive and textured as the streets that shaped them. Each track is an experience, serving up an unfiltered taste of both struggle and success, designed to leave listeners both stirred and inspired.
