It's looking like Gates is focusing a bit more on lyricism and introspection on The Luca Brasi Story 2 — one of the many anticipated December releases. Listen to "Out The Mud" and "Reasonable Suspicion"; this is a good thing. Also, listen to "Perfect Imperfection," a song that charms with its accessibility and near stream of consciousness style. The Luca Brasi Story 2 officially drops on Dec. 15.
