Let me reintroduce you to Robert Wilson, better known as the one and only Fresh I.E. You know, the Canadian rapper guy who got nominated for a Best Rock Gospel Album Grammy in 2004 for his out-of-nowhere debut Red Letterz?

However, despite the few missteps, there are also a number of winning elements. The self-produced beats are by far stronger, punchier, and more complex than those heard on Fresh's debut, which oftentimes sounded too indie and underdeveloped. Wilson also takes a few more risks lyrically, relying less on verbatim biblical ideas and more on off-the-cuff rhyme schemes. Though this progress is certainly not enough to warrant Fresh I.E. a Grammy win, it undeniably places him on a taller artistic pedestal, perhaps silencing those who may not feel he's worthy of recognition from the Academy.
