After being quiet for most of 2024, the preeminent rapper/producer in the game, 38 Spesh, returned mid-summer to give fans that pain music he is known for. As the title makes clear, this album is dedicated to Spesh’s mother, who was taken from him too soon. On this offering the T.C.F. CEO opens up about his past and lets listeners into his world. As he puts it, “I made this album as therapy to help me overcome depression from losing close family. This is the most meaningful and emotional body of work I’ve ever made.”
