In 2020, what should have been El Camino's masterpiece, entirely produced by Camoflauge Monk, is leaked and the rapper initially gives up on it, saving the savable for an EP released about a year later. The EP contains six tracks that show a promising return in shape for the Buffalo artist. In spring 2022, a new version of "Walk by Faith" is released, consisting of 15 tracks and approximately 33 minutes. El Camino had promoted it a couple of years ago as his greatest work and it's comforting to be able to say that he didn't go too far, this record is up there together with "Walking on Water", "Don't Eat the Fruit", his debut EP and "Lot and Abraham" among his top projects. The production is undeniably good, exquisite melodic jazz boom bap beats with the drum as supporting role, El Camino flows very well in rapping, limiting the sung moments and providing great tracks along with Boldy James, Skyzoo, Jae Skeese and Meyhem Lauren. This half hour goes by very quickly, even if it's not really an original tape and if you have listened to "If You Know You Know", it's not really a necessary effort, due to the fact that the best songs are also in that EP under different titles.
