A label press release said, “The album is conceived as a ghetto opera, with various scenes and characters, as their story is revealed. All of this album is either very rare or previously unreleased, so get ready for what is virtually a brand new Shabazz album, as compiled by Bazz himself especially for Chambermusik.”
The work features Freestyle (of The Arsonists) and Snow Goons.
