The Underachievers, Lords Of Flatbush 2: It Happened In Flatbush

The first Lords of Flatbush mixtape was a display of Issa Gold and AK’s raw talent. “This tape is mostly bangers. All the lyrical conscious expanding knowledge filled magical triple optic shit will have to wait for the upcoming album,” Gold said when it released. Sonically, Indigoism is their best full project to date so it will be interesting to see what The Underachievers have in store for The Lords of Flatbush 2. Issa Gold announced LOFT2 was coming in February 2016, but has since deleted the tweet which may not be a good sign.
