Coming Home ft. Tonii (Sampled from “Two lovely pillows” by Laura Lee)
@MI_Abaga always knows how to start a project in a catchy way, this track came with a sauce of its own and make u want to stay glued and listen to everything else on the tape. "Did you miss me"

6ft, 7ft ft. Phenom (sampled from 6ft, 7ft by Lil Wayne)
My favourite track on this project, @MI_Abaga went haywire with the bars "Luke, Mark my words, I’m not the John pissing" phenom also came through with lines like "Rappers looking edible, I’m a lyrical cannibal"

Love Sex BS ft. Kahli Abdu (Sampled from “No Bullsh*t” by Chris brown)
@MI_Abaga showed his ability to 'toast' on this track, a very soothing symphonic track it was, kahli abdu also delivered his part wonderfully well.

Do I move you (sampled from do I move you by Nina Simone)
I love this track so much
@MI_Abaga's composition and flows on this track was epic. I don't know why but I think no one samples Nina Simone like Mi abaga

N.otis ft pryse (sampled from Otis by jay z and Kanye West)
@MI_Abaga always have this effect on every artist he features on his project, he makes them outdo themselves, till date I feel this was pryse's best verse She really came through and Mi did his thing as usual

Superhuman ft HHP (sampled from Novacane by frank ocean)
Mi said "I make music for me and never comply" this record is such an amazing track, still one of my favourites. HHP (rest his soul) also came through on this

The X.O bit ft Xo senovoe
This was the only track in the history of @MI_Abaga's Rap that he ALMOST got bodied, xo senovoe came through big time, but mi always have a way of stealing the show with amazing wordplay and metaphors

Fvck you ft @Iceprincezamani (sampled from fvck you symphony by millie jackson)
Arguably one of ice prince's best rap verse, he really went in with lines like "I'm at the top and I was carried by a short N!gga" and @MI_Abaga rapping with that tone was mad

Eyes ft makiller (sampled from kick off successful by drake and Trey songz)
"My eyes have never seen, such an exquisite being" this is the kind of things girls love to hear from guys
The track was peaceful and rhythmic, makiller came in hard as well.

Pain ft shaydee and pope
This track is something else, laced with the amazing voice of shaydee you will definitely want to stay glued and listen.

Loving me (sampled from it's good to be in love by frou frou)
The production and lyrics of this track was top notch, that hook was definitely worth it.
This track is a prove that @MI_Abaga is not just a rapper but an artist.
