    NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've been anticipating this since I had a freaking myspace account, that's how old this stupid album is!!!!!! Hahaha I remember dropping subliminals on his Facebook statuses a while back giving him ? for not releasing it lol!

    This is amazing news!!!!! This could make album of the year, quite easily. It's about time he did something selfish!!!!!!! Props Tone!!!!!

    Dude's a geek, obviously lol.

    But I have his limited edition collection disc that he dropped not so long back; that's a good listen with some unreleased tracks; did you pick it up?

    Yeah, that's the one… it's a decent cop, but I don't think I've gotten round to the second disc yet; it'll be interesting to see what Tone does though; given that he's never really put out a solid release himself and been around for a very long time…

    When The Gates and Porcelain dropped, most Essence heads at the time were calling him one of the best in the independent lane.

    Yeah, people are still saying on his Facebook that it won't drop and he responded by saying think what you want basically, but that they have never gone back on a release day lol.

    It's exactly that… I've said that before, only at least they didn't lie about it coming out all the time (or at least, not as much!)

    Surely will be, Kno's production would make any emcee sound like ? ...

    Tone's ability on the mic is flawless, his breath control to his lyrics, can't wait for this... it could be up there with my top 5 of the year, should deliver much more than Archetype did.
