The first third of Anti-Pop Consortium to go solo drops bombs with an awesome composition for emcees to slit their throats to with progressive musical experimentation through lyrical virtuosity and vanguard production.

Punctuated by abstruse imagery, an infinite hook and gargantuan beat, "Raping Silence" personifies an aural assault on the rational intellect. The murky timbre and grainy tonality of "Toast" juxtaposes the southpaw staccato of lyrics like "The will to invent/Through honesty and agony/It’s not a question of real/If that motivates one to rock mics/It can’t be wrong/That makes the battle worth the fight/That makes the question to the answer/That makes reason rhythm inside the rhyme/In his mind a fool can be a king" and goes airborne with internally-rhymed existentials like, "If the conscious is the dead speaking out from the grave/Then instead/Do we bury the dead alive?"

"Hot Venom" is intelligent dance music evading the gravitational pull of logic that flames out over a beat that’s blowing speakers like fellatio. "Mutescreamer" twitches and contorts with screwy syntheticism shaded by a brash bass line and a slicing and dicing Ginsu tongue. "Sickle Cell Hysteria" is a resounding turntablistic composition that doubles as Battlestar Gallactica lasertag.

"Booga Suga" is bound to elicit snaps from the coterie of spoken word warriors with its metaphorical narrative of a hip-hop junkie in the relentless pursuit of sublimity. IDM blockheads will roll on the Eurocentric dance extravaganza "Rose Periwinkle Plum" as it steadily shifts and evolves with its symphonic techtonic industrial tempo. "Slow Broken" is articulate and turbulent for the blaring, pitching and snaring avalanche of intrepid verse that revisits New York when faith crumpled like the skyline. Closing out the album is the cold cadence of "Walking By Night" that admonishes cheddarheads to do something useful for once like "shooting yourselves." Track for track, Tommorrow Right Now is an essential listen for anyone thirsting for furtherness in 2003.
