Kardinal is a Jamaican-Canadian from Toronto, who mixes regae and dancehall beats with rap. Sounds a lil too much for you probably, but trust me its as good as any CD you will ever buy. Im not gonna go compare Kardinal to Tupac or DMX yet but 3 years from now I figure everyone will be, got this CD the day it came out and just decided to write the review now, its that good that 2 years later its still in my CD changer. If you want fresh beats, original lyrics, a new style the likes of which you probably havent heard, then you gotta own this
