  • Tunisian MC Cheb Terro passed away a day after finishing this album at the age of 24. Influenced by punk and gangster rap, his verses were unapologetically dark—a style that reflected the political violence weighing on his generation. Complimenting this hard-edged delivery is a menacing, dubstep-leaning bassline courtesy of Daisuke Imamura, AKA DJ Die Soon. The two artists, both skilled in creating moody texture, are a perfect pairing. As unnerving synths and stuttering drums form a bricolage of digital debris, Cheb Terro's voice grows more distorted, reaching a point where vocals and beats seemingly merge into dense matter.
