A Sunday can give me a chance to educate you snot-nosed youngsters. Here’s a good friend of mine, former Def Jam publicist Bill Adler recalling the drama back in 1989 that almost broke-up Public Enemy when a group member gave a very volatile interview to The Washington Times.

Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now.
