This album is a 12-track semi-autobiographical documentary on which PM Kenobi stakes his career.
The narrative begins backstage at an unknown small club, vividly depicting the artist's past economic and mental struggles. It unflinchingly charts the turmoil caused by the sudden social media frenzy and the subsequent backlash.
Through collaboration with comrades coloring the current scene-including Moment Joon, KennyDoes, RESi, and asu-PM Kenobi reaches a critical turning point: the choice to completely stop "acting cool." With this album, he establishes a new philosophy: "The uncool, pathetic reality is the most powerful weapon."
This is the raw, unflinching trajectory of an artist breaking free from the pitfalls of modern success and finding his authentic self.
