Decent Essays

The passion and pure talent that Logic brings to the table mixed with his love for Movies and Video Games allows him to create a story driven album that includes lines of controversial subjects summing up Logic's views on the worlds problems. The album revolves around a man (Adam) who has been chosen by God to live through every human life to ever exist before he can proceed to after life, just like Logic's other studio albums this one tells a story woven into the songs. Logic raps from many different perspectives to convey the story presented in the first song "Hallelujah" where the main character is hit by a car sending Adam to have a conversation with God played by Neil Degrasse Tyson.
