Even though I was kind of harsh toward his group’s 2009 project, I maintain that Sa-Ra member Shafiq Husayn dropped one of last year’s best albums. Shafiq En’ A-Free-Ka is a swollen blend of R&B, soul, and hip-hop that excels in its experimentation. Yes, the album is a bit much to digest at times, but the production remains absurdly on point throughout and Husayn’s reverb-drenched vocals complement the entire expedition. And, thankfully, he and Plug Research aren’t done promoting the record as we now have the visuals for the peace-promoting “The U.N. Plan”. Personally, I think there were several other cuts that should have been used as a single to receive to the video treatment, but I’ll definitely settle for this one.
Hit the skip to view the visuals for “The U.N. Plan”.
