Fel Sweetenberg collaborates with Detroit producer Apollo Brown for a vision of pain, struggle and glory in the form of Hip Hop in the "Psalms Of A Soldier". As real life collides with dreams, Fel uses beats and rhymes as his weaponry to voice his aggression and seek the answers to immediate questions as he steps in the shoes of a soldier to battle the obstacles of life head on. Apollo's dusty and raw vibe of boom-bap sets the tone for Fel's serious subject matter on 8 tracks which portray the realness of life through the eyes of a skilled lyricist on the edge.

""The Sophomore Jinx" album was released in 2010 originally and simultaneously became an instant classic and best kept secret.
Few got wind of the release despite the album’s indisputable quality and the project slowly became overlooked. This hidden gem showcases the versatility of Fel Sweetenberg as an Emcee and producer. Sweetenberg produced all tracks on the album except one produced by the Illustrious Illmind.
"The Sophomore Jinx" album displays the work of genius. You can’t deny the audible grittiness and one-of-a kind feel; so the label EFFISCIENZ had no choice but to give this album a second whirl. Although the album was made available via digital release, "The Sophomore Jinx" will be re-issued on DECEMBER 8 on CD and VINYL !!!"
