Navigating the roads of hip-hop with finesse, AnChelo broadens his sound with hints of R&B to add to the project’s rich flavours. Consisting of eight tracks, the EP looks to cement AnChelo as a defiant songwriter, wearing his heart on his sleeve with that raw authenticity and vulnerability.
The project intimately deals with addiction and the journey that comes along with it. Speaking about the concept behind the release, AnChelo explains, “The project is about tasting your first high and the journey in trials and tribulations of trying to find therapy and remedy, and eventually surrendering.”
