THE MUSIC EVENT OF A LIFETIME... A year in the making, this album speaks to everything we have seen and been thru as soldiers... Written and recorded in BAGHDAD, IRAQ this is all that we have and continue to endeaur. The reality of a country at war.

And no, this album is not the bullshit answers to the questions you've seen us asked by the media. This is not someone that only parades around Iraq pretending to know whats going on and speaking on the behalf of soldiers whom he knows nothing about. LIVE FROM IRAQ is everything they dont want you to hear... heard. This is what soldiers who have stood beside their friends as they fell really think about everything thats happening here... what we'll never be allowed to say on camera, or to the press... LIVE FROM IRAQ is the TRUTH .

I'm not a big fan of rap, but after watching the video I was hooked on the track. I hope I can get myself a copy of the album soon.

I'm listening to clips of the tracks off CD Baby right now and the music actually feels raw and powerful. This somehow reminds me of Body Count even though that was more hard core.

Read the listener reviews. Pretty interesting feedback on there.

"I listened to the tracks and immediately put my name on the list for when this CD is available again. If a 55-year-old white grandma from the midwest who never listens to rap is gonna buy, you know you're telling a story worth telling. Come home safe - and soon!"
