"So no standard jewel case shit, we had a factory in Bejing make up a hardback book looking like cover slightly larger than a CD case with an opening on each end. Then we did this special 5" vinyl - not a 7" 45 - but a vinyl the size of a CD. We brought in Roc to make two solo joints as incentive to make this a dope package.
So of the two tracks, this is one of them: "Lonely & Cold" (the other is titled "Shotguns In Hell"). The sound is something Apollo had started experimenting with for the Ghostface Killah record - The Brown Tape - that Apollo did in late 2013 as a companion re-envisioning of Adrian Younge's version "12 Reasons To Die". It's a more striped down, bare, and rugged type of production when compared to some of Apollo's more horn lush and drum layered affairs."
