The Pro Era MC is back with his first album in nearly four years.

At the backend of January we covered out first material from Pro Era rapper Chuck Strangers in over three years. The Brooklynite had been gearing up for his comeback album with the release of the single "Ski'd Up." We thoroughly enjoyed the track in every way from Chuck's focused flows and The Alchemist's smooth, woodwind beat. Now, Chuck Strangers is back to deliver on that album, which is called A Forsaken Lover's Plea.

This is just the third overall project from Strangers, and as we mentioned his first in about four years. That last offering was Too Afraid to Dance. Chuck is definitely making up for some lost time here, as he brings his longest album to date. There are 17 tracks, but at a breezy 34-minute runtime.

Joining Chuck over tons of solid jazz and boom bap beats are his bandmate Joey Bada$$, fellow New Yorker Erick the Architect, Obii Say, Remy Banks. All in all, this a very solid album from an underrated lyricist. If you need something to keep you focused with the immaculate vibes and standout writing this is your record.
