The 17th Cipher x Rufus Sims x IAMGAWD "Chicagospel" [ALBUM]

After Grindhouse studio performances, Inside Look documentaries and individual visuals, "Chicagospel" is now available as a complete fourteen-track album. The 17th Cipher curates, Rufus Sims and IAMGAWD share the vocals. The project was built over weeks as a connected universe: every video, every performance, every behind-the-scenes segment from Marsz Flight Films contributed to the album before the full release. That strategy separates "Chicagospel" from a standard album drop — listeners already carry familiarity with individual moments, and the complete project now gives them context. Chicago anchors the theme — not as generic drill territory, but as a site of memory, loss, neighborhood identity and lyrical discipline. The fact that Rufus Sims and IAMGAWD avoid retreating into pure local chronicle and instead pose universal questions about belonging and perseverance gives the record reach well beyond city limits.
