Ace SL was recently in the program as co-producer and feature on Exxtru God's "Ashanti" — now comes his own album, and it's considerably more than a footnote. "PERIDOT" — named after the green gemstone — brings seventeen tracks with a feature list that commands attention: AA Rashid opens on the intro, Rome Streetz on "All My Life," Sauce Heist on "Nights at Rao's," Remy Banks on "Livin' Like That," Teeg Austin on "Murrays Corner," plus Plaza, Pyrex P, O Dawg and Mari Niko. The guest selection draws a map of the current New York underground — from Rome Streetz' Griselda-adjacent hardness through Sauce Heist's Heist Life universe to Remy Banks from the World's Fair orbit. "Nights at Rao's" as a title is a nice detail: Rao's is the legendary, practically inaccessible Italian restaurant in East Harlem — a status symbol beyond chains and watches. The closer "Diplomas (Public Apology)" hints at a more personal, reflective level. Seventeen tracks is a statement, but the cast and the range of titles suggest Ace SL delivers his most complete work yet here.
