Medicine
Hands down one of the hardest-working, gifted emcees from the Left Coast, Planet Asia's long-awaited 2nd LP, aptly titled The Medicine, is that musical wonder drug fans have long been fiending for. Dilated Peoples' Evidence has managed to give Asia a dynamic, yet consistent sonic canvas to showcase his well-known range of styles and moods, from the battle-ready  Thick Ropes  and  Stick and Move  feat. Prodigy, to the summery sounds of  In Love  feat. Jonell. With The Medicine, Asia has managed to combine lyrical growth and style while still remaining true to what he does best. In other words, the music is heartfelt, but at the same time, he's felt.
