‼️🚨The recording of No Justice, No Peace will be available 4 weeks from today‼️🍾🍾

Getting this opera off the ground was a process. It took 4 years from the seed of an idea being born to seeing it alive on stage. These four years were filled with set back after set back, but we overcame them all.

As we approach the album release, I’ll be sharing some behind the scenes info about the creation of this opera.

Stay tuned!

Shout out to for the fantastic album cover!

Shout out to .lane for mixing and mastering the album! ❤️
