Queen Herawin is one third of the Juggaknots — that Bronx crew around Breeze Brewin whose "Clear Blue Skies" belongs among the great underrated works of the 90s underground. PA. Dre is currently one of the most in-demand producers in the Wu-adjacent universe — the man behind the majority of Inspectah Deck's "Dragon's Breath." That combination alone makes the album interesting. "DOTOM: Death Of The Old Me" — the title announces transformation. Sixteen tracks on which an MC veteran buries her old self and starts fresh. That's a bold concept for someone with her history, because it means not resting on the Juggaknots legacy but making her own evolution the subject. Herawin was always one of the most distinctive female voices of the New York underground, and with PA. Dre she has a producer working in peak form right now. For everyone who only knows Juggaknots as a footnote: this is the occasion to dig deeper.
