Drawing inspiration from a lyric in Nas’s iconic “New York State of Mind,” the album title “Cash Flow, Buddha & Shelter” reflects J. Sands‘ mindset during its creation. “That line from Nas’s ‘Illmatic’ album just hit me,” Sands says. “If it ain’t about cash, some good smoke, or improving my crib, I ain’t got time for it.” Sands expounds on the topics on the title track, featuring masterful scratching from original X-Ecutioners DJ Rob Swift. The album perfectly intersects storytelling, MCing, and social-political context.
