Press Reviews REVIEW OF "Split Brain Shadow" by Gods of Music website: I love the Cheech and Chong take off at the intro...funny as hell!! It becomes very evident when listening to WHITETRASH SHAOLIN, the reasons why alternative hip hop is catching on like wild fire in dry brush: A break from the violent lyrics of street life and alltogether an uplifting experience (give or take the quality of your tree!)!! Music production is super tight and very clean. Every tid bit and detail is balanced very well within the song...I listened to SPLIT BRAIN SHADOW many times and each time came up with the same conclusions...the vocals and lyrics are tight, its just that the ears are stressin like hell to understand whats being said! The second verse vocals are suddenly upped and become very clear and easy to understand (ya'll was blowin' tree's during mix down , ain't?) !! Aside from vocal balance at the beginning of the song, the track is really hot!! I'm feelin the beat , lovin the small details and also doing a few karate kicks here and there (damn i just kicked my kid in the mouth!) grasshopper!!!! keep kickkin ya'll Vdsoulj'A BLACK SOULS
