“Prince Ade was not afraid to take music back to its roots, the project contains several powerful African rhythm that will have you feeling awesome and amazed. Consistently captivating in its lyrical content and its energy and emotion is too infectious not to inspire the listener. It is great to hear a hip-hop artist take a concept of music seriously, ‘captivating, educating, inspiring, uplifting and motivating.”
