Coming off the success of last year's collaborative album Barrel Brothers with Skyzoo, Torae returns with his sophomore album, Entitled. Picking up where his debut For The Record left off, we find Torae back in his zone of witty and thought-provoking lyrics over stellar production. The album features production from Grammy Award-winning producers such as DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Nottz, and Denaun Porter. Guest features include Grammy-nominated acts like Phonte (of Foreign Exchange/Little Brother), actor/singer/songwriter Mack Wilds, and Teedra Moses. Entitled also features the Pharoahe Monch-assisted "What's Love?" previously unavailable on CD or vinyl formats.

Dope follow up to 'For The Record'
Torae has been under the radar from a lot of NY artist that should get his just due but with all his accomplishments off the mic (movie appearance,xm radio show) he's definitely used his craft to venture out,nonetheless Tor still can spit and put out quality projects from his 2014 collab with fellow Brooklyn MC Skyzoo 'Barrel Brothers' he's been holding down that classic NY boom bap sound with a twist of the new school elements this is a strong album going into 2016 and definitely worth the buy,salute.

but this album is his finest. It has everything
Torae is as dope an emcee as they come. All his stuff is dope, but this album is his finest. It has everything, dope beats, dope rhymes and a positive message too, without being preachy. The song with Phonte is on some jedi master, Yoda and Mace Windu type, expert level emceeing. Biggie would have been proud of the man!

Finest BoomBap
Wer auf New York und BoomBap steht ist dieses Album genau das richtige .Torae schwebt hier über die harten NY drums. Anspieltip Get down produziert von PETE ROCK mit Dj Premier bis heute unerreichbar was Beatbasteln angeht.Peez

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL ALBUM FROM TORAE
I'm glad to see this guy back again with a new album. This guy has the skillz to do songz the ol' school way and also cutz who sound really new very easily. It's so amazing. And the lyrics are alwayz good. I don't know why people like Kendrick Lamar receive all the good critics. This guy is musically better and more loyal to hip hop roots than any other in the game. Torae, Primo, Statik Selektah, Snowgoons and some others are saving the game of hip hop. The rest is HIP POP. So if you are a real HIP HOP fan go and buy this album. Beautiful music. Enjoy it.
