ALL STAR – Starlito’s Way 2

ALL STAR – Starlito’s Way 2

After rubbing shoulders with the biggest names - Lil Wayne first and foremost - All Star changes course. Like the protagonist of "Carlito’s Way", a gangster trying to leave the life behind, he abandons flashy rap. On this double album, the Nashville rapper turns to resentment, abandonment, and bitterness. He becomes Starlito, one of the most respected rappers of the years to come.

In the 2000s, deep within the California underground that had emerged in the wake of Project Blowed, in that extraordinary world known only to a happy few, Awol One was almost a star.

Unless it is this album - more consistent than most - released relatively later in his career with Canadian beatmaker Factor.
