The sequel once again features a legendary production lineup from the likes of <strong>Pete Rock, Erick Sermon, !llmind, Black Milk, G Koop, Apollo Brown<\/strong> and more. Guest appearances also include<strong> Willie The Kid, Vast Aire (of Cannibal Ox) a<\/strong>nd EMS. The new album is the culmination of six years of hard work, in which M-Dot himself began producing records and expanding his sound. Working on songs and production for films and tv, while still keeping his pen sharp, <strong>M-Dot<\/strong> has once again put all aspects of his creativity into a completely well-rounded body of work, that early reviewers are already calling a contender for &#8220;Album of the Year.&#8221; Grab it now on <a href=\"https:\/\/m-dotboston.bandcamp.com\/album\/ego-and-the-enemy-2-a-dissolute-paradise\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Bandcamp<\/strong><\/a>, available as a Digital Download and a Special Splash Colored Collector&#8217;s Vinyl.
