With Joe Comfort & Bill Douglas Tampa 1950s.

On the opening track of Unlearning Vol. 2, his fifth solo album, Evidence signals a shift. InchSet the autopilot, cruising speed,Inch he raps-an image of ease that he quickly upends. The song, fittingly titled InchPlans Change,Inch sets the tone for an album that favors reinvention over routine.Since his days with Dilated Peoples, Evidence has embodied cool precision. But like it's 2021 predecessor, Unlearning Vol. 2 pushes back against the comfort of legacy. It's not just a stylistic evolution-it's a deeper, more instinctive exploration. Instead of leaning on familiar patterns, Evidence delves into raw emotion and personal growth, creating a sound that's both grounded and experimental.The production-Sebb Bash's InchSeeing Double,Inch C-Lance's InchTop Seeded,Inch Evidence's own InchGreatest MotivationInch-creates a smoky, immersive atmosphere. His voice cuts through with lyrical complexity and lived-in weight, especially on standouts like InchNothing's PerfectInch and InchLaughing Last.Inch Featuring a multi-generational cast of collaborators including The Alchemist, DJ Babu, Blu, Larry June, Conductor Williams, and more, the album is united by a clear mission to keep growing, keep challenging, and keep turning pain into purpose through sharp, intentional creativity.
