Back in 2013,

Boldy James

and The Alchemist

released the collaborative

album My 1st

Chemistry Set.

Six year later,

they released a teaser EP

and now, seven years

later, they are back

in full force

with The Price of Tea

in China, a 12 song

rap masterpiece.

Might this be

the rap album

of the year?

It’s an early

contender.

This is the 2020

version of Bandana,

which makes

all the more sense

given that Gibbs

has an appearance

(as well as Vince Staples

and Benny the Butcher).

Boldy James

is full of tales

and struggles

and sagas.

He’s a veteran

rapper who

can rap for days

(and quickly, too,

as we see in

The Cave)

and this album

has brought forth

some much deserved

acclaim and recognition.
