about

This was originally started as a full length project to follow The Last Amateur, but only this first section was ever completed. It is also meant to be a prequel to the "Nowhere to Run" track.

Backstory to the concept and title:
I was in New York in the early 2000s with fellow DJs TDawg and Authentic. We stopped at Turntable Lab and I wanted to drop off copies of Popular Fallacies for the shop. Apparently some music stores in the city had been raided for mixtapes that day and so they passed on taking any of my CDs.

A few years later, a major mixtape raid and arrests by federal agents in Atlanta made me wonder what I would do in that situation- I figured that given a heads up, I would take off and run!

I tried to pack as much detail as I could in the deconstruction of all the tracks. I hope you enjoy it.
