The tougher the path, the stronger the individual and
Savage Sun lays down the hard won wisdom from a life well
lived. The tracks range from soul soothing to heart gripping

You can’t say it’s only about the commercialism, the cribs
and the money. You can’t say rappers are teenage thugs
lacking any real talent. You can’t—because rappers such as
Savage Sun will be there to prove you wrong. The album
brings together complex, layered beats with the rapper’s
intense delivery and often-introspective lyrics.
