Coming off the strength of THE NETHERWORLDS LP, one third of that trio, HIMSELF, is dropping his debut solo album on GALAPAGOS4. "PROVIDENCE PLAYS NO FAVORITES" shows this prolific MC’s talents as a songwriter, while keeping up that bump you’re expecting. HIMSELF digs deep and offers up heart and soul in his lyrics. Whether rapping introspectively or snapping off at the lip, it is never in vain. The beats knock with that LA to Chicago vibe, with ANACRON handling most, and DJ PNS, DJ White Lightning, Justin Tewn & Aloe all stepping in with one banger. "Providence" is sure to keep all fans of THE NETHERWORLDS satiated and attract those looking for the soul to be brought back to hip-hop.

"Rather than comparing Himself to all the previously mentioned artists, you can really throw ’em in the same pot. A saying usually with a negative connotation is actually the exact opposite; considering amongst what company Himself finds himself in. And it’s a fair saying that Himself is a little bit of all of them, releasing an album that every person enjoying one of those artists, will find personal enjoyment in too."
