  1.One-Thirtyeight   

2. Ready or Not    

 On the song One-Thirtyeight it says it features Joe Loftus on bass.   If this is “featuring” a bass player it’s a strange form of feature I’m not familiar with.  The bass plays a supportive role in this song only.  Maybe this means there’s a live bass player on this cut or maybe it’s name dropping (and maybe I should know who Mr. Loftus is, maybe not.)   The rap on is well delivered.  The chorus is sung and sounds a bit like Ozzy Osborn.  The song really rocks without too much screaming.

 Ready or Not says it features Da Kernal & Archangel.  Song is a mellow hip-hop groove with a chorus that says “Ready or Not here he comes he’s going to find you and change you slowly….. and mold you boldly.” 

 This is a good two song introduction to Phoenix.  Here’s hoping he continues on proclaiming Jehovah’s Kingdom in this world.
