Respect Vol. 2: Kings of NYC is a thank-you note - twelve thank-you notes to be exact. Each song is a dedication to an artist or group who helped raise us. We made this album because Hip-Hop helped raise us, and you don't grow up without saying thank you.

This limited-edition CD (edition of 20) includes 12 main tracks featuring Mega Ran, Prowess the Testament, The Bad Seed, Kastaway, and more - PLUS 14 CD-only bonus tracks including two alternate versions and full instrumentals.

Here's what advance listeners are saying:

"I thoroughly enjoyed this project. The beats are really dope and completely connect me to the era that they are a tribute to, without jacking anyone's particular style or classic songs. The emcees all step to the task with passion and reverence." - Chris Bawtinheimer

"This is a wonderful project and every single track is great. It's like hearing a bunch of dope rappers describing my childhood and adolescence!" - Jordan Thornton

"Yo man the album is niceee. First time through I'm loving it. And the beats are on point!" - Reuben Briggs

Ships on or around September 4, 2026.
