Nex Millen’s alternative, soulful beats accompany the spoken word of Mumia Abu Jamal, recorded from death row at Huntingdon State Prison and S.C.I. Greene. The album also includes guest appearances by Assata Shakur, Allen Ginsberg & Jello Biafra. A diversion from everyday hip hop, Millen’s latest effort features his skillful production and a message in his music – the message of death row inmate Mumia Abu Jamal. From the haunting keyboards of "To Be Like Malcolm, A Message To Mumia" to the funky, up-tempo sound of "A Bright Shining Hell" to the subtle scratching in "Statement of the Facts" and "Legalized Crime" to the moving strings of "The Depth of Our Courage," Millen’s beats artfully support the powerful lyrics without detracting from the purpose of the piece – to allow listeners to hear the voice of Jamal and his supporters – many for the first time.
