Since the departure of 9th Wonder and Little Brother, underground Hip-Hop fans have been awaiting 9th’s next move. 

The Grammy Award winning producer comes correct as he cooks up hard-hitting drums fused with his notable soulful touches. 

Dream Merchant Vol. 2 is the official solo effort of Mr. Wonder as his lyrical clientele embraces his knocking beats from Royce Da 5’9, Camp Lo, Saigon, Naledge of Kidz in The Hall and a host of others. 

The fresh start of 9th Wonder starts with a definitive glimpse as he re-introduces himself as the Dream Merchant ready and willing to drop food for your eardrums.  “Shots” kicks off the LP with Creator of the Hall of Justus Big Dho and Brooklynite Sean P whose reprocessed 16 took away from the freshness of the track. 

The hood acclaimed 3 Kings of the underground, Skyzoo, Torae and Chaundon bring nothing but heat with “Merchant of Dreams” along side The EMBASSY. 

The most surprising trio off Vol. 2 would have to be Mos Def, Jean Grae and yes, Memphis Bleek with the restored Crooklyn Dodges collab. 

Jean Grae still reins as one of the most lyrical femcees in the game, point blank period.  Dream Mer chant Vol. 2 fuels the rise of underground Hip-Hop with stand-out tracks “Saved” with Saigon and Joe Scudda, “Baking Soda” featuring Big Treal and the relatable track “No Time to Chill” with Little Brother. 

If you’re tired of mediocre dance songs and need dope music to bump in your trucks then support this 16-track disc worthy enough to be called Hip-Hop.
