I know we are a little bit late on this but I guess it's better late than never. Earlier this year Godforsakes and K Fushuz released their collaboration LP "The Master's Plan". Featured artists include Shady Boy, Kozme, Lil Vampz and more. An official statement about the album reads like this: "Our music is real underground positive poetry. None of that fake it till you make it stuff. If your a hard working father trying to balance real life and a dream that lives in you then this might be for you or perhaps a single mother looking for something unlike that radio rap that really makes no sense at times. I guess what i am trying to say is take a chance on some solid hip hop. Give it a listen you won't be disappointed. Thank you for taking the time appreciate it very much.".
