He described the album as thought-provoking and filled with the true storytelling of a broken society. “It’s a hip-hop album which carries weight with messages of anti-gun violence, world peace, human cohesion, love, peace, unity and God’s providence as a solace to humanity,” said Atlas.
“People must expect nothing less than legendary. It’s inspired by the many social ills affecting society on a day-to-day basis, inspired my drive to speak from my heart through music.”
Atlas co-produced the album and said he even worked on the mixing and mastering with his engineer, Patou Bissay.
He said it features renowned local vocalists such as Mr Mo, The Freedom and new the RnB sensation Melodic.
