Citizen Kane MHB appears as a featured guest on three tracks of this record—which would be unremarkable if the record weren't his. *Head of the Table (Ula Fala Edition)* is billed to CK1, the alias that guested on his recent Millyz diss EP, while the lyric credit reads Citizen Kane MHB and the mirror-script alter ego from that same EP returns on the closer, "I Run This S@#$!". The persona shell game isn't a gimmick on top of the music; it is the structure. The title vocabulary reads like a nod to pro wrestling's Tribal Chief era—"Head of the Table," the ula fala of Samoan chiefly tradition, and a sign-off that riffs on "wreck everyone and leave." Taken with the Halloween-framed diss EP it follows, the picture is an artist building a small, strange, self-referential universe at high speed. The production team is unchanged: CFK and Avalon Productions on the beats, DJ Snatch That on all cuts, with Snatch That also carrying two tracks as billed features. Half the eight tracks run under a minute—interstitial pieces like "The OTC" and "Defense Mechanism" stitching together the three full songs. Whoever is at the head of this table, he is clearly setting it himself.
