Side-FX - Creative Control

Two tracks stand out immediately: 'Close Your Eyes' and 'May 2008'. I really dig the story and concept on 'May 2008'. Nice plot twist. Any inspiration from Common's "Testify"? Overall, the album shows more wisdom, honesty and maturity than I would expect from a debut album. And there's some bangin beats on there.

Side-FX Response:
Yeah "Testify" is a sick track, but I only heard it after writing the album. It was somewhat inspired by Jay-z's track "Dope Man" and also "Coming Of Age". Another good one from Common is "Payback is a Grandmother"
