California’s Hidden Mass Incarceration Crisis: How CDCR is Holding Thousands Beyond Their Lawful Release Dates By (Devon T. White) ThaWilsonBlock Magazine California’s prison system is quietly carrying out one of the largest campaigns of unlawful incarceration in modern American history. Right now, thousands of people are being held beyond their lawful release dates by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR), in direct violation of state law and constitutional rights.

OBI93 - Never Heard a Tree Grow | EP

by -

 Never Heard A Tree Grow - The 2nd EP from the Washington DC native plants seeds of confessionalism and introspectiveness as he explores the past and present for testimonies of growth.

From the social satire of “Stay Safe, Don’t Be Stoopid”, the raw grimace of distrust in “Ratios” to the pop-ish commentary on love and relationship skills in “Thirsty Boy 2003”, this alternative hip-hop sounding EP finds OBI93 at his most intentional thus far.

Defined by 93’s coming of age in his 20s, Obi lyrically presents his notions verbosely and atmospherically as the production calls for.
He teams up with a fellow DC native(Lani Flaze) and Final Fantasy opera performer (Amanda Achen) to give a spacious, jazz-electronic influenced intro.

He personally considers “Never Heard a Tree Grow”, the work that most accurately prequels a concept debut album in the works called “When We’ve All Grown Up.” A solid stepping stone, 93 aims to continue to deliver.
