I had to pause my workout at “Be Happy”, because I replayed it twice and just broke down. Thank you, Akira the Don, for delivering ancient yet true messages to a drowning modern age that would otherwise possibly never encounter it in such a digestible form.

It's difficult for me to weigh med. Vol 1 against Vol 2 They're both fantastic. Both get a 10/10. Ive been listening to this album every day since it cane out. Its really wonderful to have that have stuck in my head. Then I turn on the radio and hear lyrics bragging about selling out for fame and being a, 'demon lord '. The contrast is stark, light and dark, good and evil. Meaningwave is on the side of truth and justice. Much love Akira

I haven't sat down till tonight to actually look at the lyrics in depth but God do I hope I actually reflect on them instead of breaking down and doing the habits I no longer want to do. Thank you again for creating this music style. Can't wait to buy it
