Andre "AG" Barnes breaks into 2019 with a new collaborative EP, this time trying to bring Italian producer Cuns out of the underground, and the latter brings out several interesting gems. The tape is released under the Italian label Tuff Kong Records, mixed and mastered by the veteran Bassi Maestro. AG doesn't fully exploit it — typically for him — and leaves little to analyze, but the dark, obscure, tight, jazzy boom bap dropped by Cuns during the whole EP deserves to be listened to. There's a dedicated instrumental part in one of the editions of "Bronck's Kill", I recommend that to jazz rap fans. The light delivery of AG more than anything else disappoints, in fact one of the best cuts is the gloomy, tight remix of "When It Rains It Pours" which presents a couple of guests. The instrumental, ça va sans dire, is pretty dope. 6/10.
