This album is the reflective insight into a modern man who's fed up with the game of life and shit MCs. Grammar puts pen to pad to creatively vent his calling consciousness, portraying poor time keeping, tales of deceit, politics and daily struggles. Staying in touch with this fucked up world is the core running blueprint for this impressive full length debut album. With great irony he picks away at industry cons and pretty much calls out the entire egotistical, elitist and material driven realm we walk in.

He spits relentlessly raw wake up calls that both showcase his talent as a Hip Hop artist and highlight the frailties of modern society. Grammar explores relative avenues with hard hitting lines and a salavia full of sarcasm. He also rubs shoulders with Commission, 9th Dan and Nyree, all of which were used for guest verses.

The production includes appearances from Termite, Kal-Q-lus, Blazey and Skylark, while cuts come courtesy of Jabbathakut, Mr Bristow and Bruce himself. At times both beats and words share similarities to the early Taskforce MFTC albums.

The production is refined and stripped down, including earthy beats, occasionally exploration, but always holding just enough plod to give Grammar opportunity to flex his commanding voice. Track 7 'Funny How' is a prime example of exploration, with inspirational lyrics and a beat to keep you spaced outside the box. There are a few bangers on the album that may make your neck ache. It's either the beat or its Bruce Grammars lyrical onslaught. He spits justified flows and punches vocab out like a school bully with a point.

Its bars like these on 'Punch Out' "C*nts wanna act like they thugged out, they move to a girl and take her back to their mums house" that helps take the edge off the spiritual stuff and that's the beauty of this album. Bruce Grammar stays true to the art as an MC, as well as adding his own questions to the world. A lot of the questions many bother to ask but after Insert Coins he'll have you all ears and wanting more.
