Brother Ali with meaningful lyrics. No news there. But still looking forward to pressing play on this… again. Dude is the definition of dope! Laid back introspective flows. Mixed in with some conviction and points to ponder. Ali can go!

(Weaving in that Badu sample? Genius!)

‘Sensitive’ deals with the reality that artists are often times faced with self-doubt and a deep sense that the world isn’t hearing us as we’d like to be heard. This one was made at a time when I’d taken too long to release new music, had medical trouble with my voice and felt like I’d alienated fans with my political statements. Typical ‘tortured artist’ vibe that not many people talk about in Hip-Hop, but we all experience it on one level or another.
