Not sure what prompted Hodgy dropping an EP on the Internets, but I fucks with it. To the point where I'm almost like, let's get a Hodgy solo jawn over non-OF niggas. Just sayin'. Nine tracks of excellence. Some quirk on here ("Samurai") mixed with some knock ("Bullshittin'"). Shouts to PotW. EDIT I had no idea that Thelonious Martin had credits on this ("Ave.", "If Heaven Is A Ghetto"). Respect to him!

See, this is the kind of shit I love when it comes to Hip-Hop. Niggas taking their influences and truly using them to create new pieces of art. Each member of St. Joe Louis took inspiration from the late David Ruffin, using his "chaotic life of excess" and re-imagining it for their own lives. I'd love to see a video where each member's head is transposed on David's body. Maybe I'm thinking too far ahead, lol. Fucks with SJL, doe. Shouts to The Cloud Club.
