This version brings crucial clarifications compared to the earlier mention in this coverage series: the full Bandcamp listing shows DJ Promo and Elias-Omar as equal primary artists ("by DJ Promo & Elias-Omar"), jointly mastered at Category 5 Studio in Vieques, Puerto Rico. DJ Promo handles production and cuts, Elias-Omar the lyrics a classic division of labor that gives the album clear structure despite multiple guest appearances. The guest list is now fully named: Professor Spitz appears on "Obvious," Alitta on "Chenin Blanc," Marco Five on "Judgement Night" and again on "The Revenant" alongside DJ Mr. Phantastik and Godspeed. The title "Forgotten Gems II" is confirmed as an ongoing series rather than a one-off project the deliberate curation of forgotten or overlooked moments continues here. The fact that production originates from Vieques, a small island off Puerto Rico, gives the whole project a geographic specificity rarely stated explicitly in underground rap.
