Hip Hop always had a way of speaking on behalf of the common man. Somewhere around the "Bling Era", that voice has began to get hoarse. Hip Hop began to become stale and stereotypical. This made Hip Hop become a "villain" among society (as well as towards fellow hip hop artists and fans). The genre needed someone to save it. It needed a hero for a ugly job. This is where Apollo Brown, Verbal Kent and Red Pill combine powers and form Ugly Heroes. The lyrics on this album are raw and define what hope is all about. The essence of overcoming within any obstacle is within every single song. Red Pill's verse on "Desperate" referring to popping bottles shows the parallel of vanity and reality. Also, Verbal Kent gives a "hot debut" to anyone who has never heard of him before this project on "Hero's Theme". Apollo Brown created some bangers on this project (Push and Hero's Theme were classic). "Never Go" is a track that will not only inspire young love, but inspiring artists as well. The chemistry (lyrics and production) are so on point. Any blue collar worker can love and appreciate this project. After hearing this project, Ugly heroes are here to save the day!
