#81 - Injury Reserve - By the Time I Get to Phoenix REVIEW

Video animation by: Big Flowers Intro/Outro beat by: BLOODBLIXING Beginning of Episode (0:49). After their self-titled studio album debut, with features from the likes of Freddie Gibbs, Rico Nasty, JPEGMAFIA... the sky was seemingly the limit for Injury Reserve. But then during a chaotic June 2020 for us all, tragedy hit the group as Groggs passed away for unknown reasons. When this happened, I like many I assume, thought this was the end of the group's run. No more music was to come from Injury Reserve. However, surprisingly they had an album coming out in September of 2021, titled By the Time I Get to Phoenix. On top of that, it was not just a money grab posthumous album. Instead it was a fully-fledged left-field put all the chips on the table-type album, which thankfully was largely created while Groggs was still with us. It's safe to say that the album we got was NOT what I expected.
