The first cut we have is the Goldfingz produced “Flow State” that sees him collaborating with rapper/actor Mustafa Shakir. The track has a laidback experimental texture that oozes soul with a cinematic tinge that fits Contra’s versatile melody-laced flow and vibrant performance. The title alludes to a state where individuals need to attain to get past the political and racial climate that seems to be bogging everyone down.

The second track “The Right Side” has a punchy drum arrangement and lush isntrumentation that has a hopeful mood. Contra again dives into real-time issues and proceed to implore the younger generation to take matters into their hands by doing the right thing and be part of the political sphere as much as they can. Far from being preachy, he details it in a very honest and matter-of-factly manner that everyone can latch on to.
