The Self Proclaimed King Synopsis as told by B-CIDE
I can remember being in New Orleans when the proofs of this album came back for me to review. The Self Proclaimed King to me is a testament to all the hard work going on during the time period.
The album starts off with horns blaring on the title track and really gives some perspective into The Self Proclaimed King of Utica. I lead into Stomp, Stomp featuring my boy, G.A. of Brick Money Ent., once you hear the drums in this track you know it's on.
I like to keep Shysty involved in everything so we are on 6 tracks together. It's always a good time doin shit with Shysty. We don't just get in the studio with each other, we really do shit! Aside from this music, we are always doin something, whether it's having a BBQ or just kickin around ideas, this is real life.
With so many tracks to choose from it's really hard to pick out a favorite track, but in no order what so ever I'd say, I Didn't Kill This Bitch, Quit Your Yappin, We Are The Voice, Them Boys Don't Like Me, and Yall Came Here To Party would be my top 5. I don't like to pick favorites though. The album as a whole lived up to my expectations and that's all I can hope for as an artist.
