Jasun Wardlaw from Albany, Brooklyn, New York City. A neglected guest of that project that is remembers reluctantly with the name "The Album" by the hip-hop supergroup The Firm, he makes his way from the underground to the mainstream and in 2000 tries to launch a very ambitious project.
"Million" — "Milíon" originally — is produced by Warlock Records, not really a major, but not even the latest addition. Half-A-Mill is coherent throughout what can certainly be called an underrated and overslept record. Production's simply brilliant, Trackmasterz, Neptunes and Just Blaze are the best-known names but Mike Harper, NORM, DJ Ali and Curt Gowdy don't make them regret, while Half-A-Mill pulls out some tough lyrics and incisive delivery, leaving several hidden pearls on this record ("What U Ridin", "Quiet Money", "Where BK At"), however the 40,000 copies sold are considered an insufficient result in the mainstream and Half-A-Mill fails to carve out the space it deserved before his death for shootout happened in his Albany P's, in 2003. Recommended to East Coast and boom bap fans, 7.5/10.
