| Liner notes: |
| "They say I create my own reality but if that's the case I've done |
| created some bullshit, I gotta get my mind straight..." |
| |
| Vik shares a pure moment of self reflection. 'Facts of Life' is |
| filled with feelings of angst and hope. We're transported into the |
| mind of a person struggling with his own vices and societal |
| pressures. |
| |
| One evening during a spontaneous vestige of clarity Vik laid down 90% |
| of the tape. Through a four month bout of recklessness he broke away |
| from his usual habit of getting turnt up off some beers. He instead |
| grabbed some records, a mic, a recorder and his 404; laying down his |
| raw emotions in an equally raw analogue way. |
| |
| The tape is bookended with musings from his Comfy God persona, |
| inviting the listener into his stream of bi-polar frustrations. He |
| opens with a warped conception of his usual drunken emotional state. |
| And his signature subconscious raps are snapshots into the ups and |
| downs of his aggressions and motivations. |
| |
| The rest of the tape is a more typical TRASH//SUPPLY affair where the |
| mood is dictated through his beat production. The vocal samples from |
| which Vik has drawn are very much mantras that uncover his varying |
| emotions. |
| |
| In an age where contemporary hip-hop often embraces times of |
| recklessness, Vik manages to paint a more introspective and honest |
| representation of those more withdrawn moments in life. |
