Starstruck (Prod Profit Money Beats)
A dazzling opening that blends slick production with magnetic lyricism. The atmosphere crackles with ambition and allure, setting the tone for an EP that balances swagger with depth.

The Reckoning
The core and namesake of the project, this track serves as a lyrical crucible—where truth, identity, and consequence collide. It’s a powerful statement of confrontation and reclaiming voice.

From the Heavens
A sky-reaching meditation, weaving introspection and spirituality. The track feels like a bridge between the earthly and the transcendent, grounded but uplifted.

Yada [To Know or Perceive] (Prod Profit Money Beats)
A cerebral offering that delves into awareness, perception, and the power of knowledge. The beat’s contemplative pulse complements lines that elevate thinking to action.

Harvest
Evoking cycles of growth, labor, and reward, "Harvest" is rich with metaphor. It displays both grounded storytelling and the fulfillment that comes from enduring through seasons of struggle.

Nothing Else (Prod MC Mike G)
Stripped-back and emotive, this track cuts through with clarity. It puts personal stakes front and center, articulating that for the artist, nothing else matters more than this art—this moment.

Trouble (Prod Profit Money Beats)
A gritty closer that brings a hard-hitting intensity. It’s unafraid to stare down conflict, tension, or internal divide, delivering one last dose of raw energy to leave you shaken.

Half Breeds

Half Breeds by D$ and Real Juan, with production from the duo and Brotherhood, is a powerful fusion of unfiltered truth, cultural pride, and hard-earned resilience. Across its tracks, the project confronts personal demons, systemic oppression, and the fight for self-determination—blending sharp political commentary with deeply personal storytelling.

From the anthemic identity claim of "Half Breeds", to the defiant energy of "We Comin", the vulnerable weight of "Heavy", and the hard reflections in "Where I Don’t Belong", the EP balances grit with introspection. The beats—ranging from hard-hitting to soulfully meditative—carry the voices of two artists who’ve lived their verses, turning scars into strength and struggle into art.

At its core, Half Breeds is about standing tall in the space between worlds—claiming mixed heritage, underground independence, and spiritual resolve as fuel for survival and creation. It’s both a testament to where they’ve been and a battle cry for where they’re going.

  1. We Comin (Prod Brotherhood) — A war-chant of resilience and West-side pride, turning struggle into fuel and Indigenous roots into power.

  2. Settle the Score (Prod Brotherhood) — A scripture-charged battle cry delivering divine justice against corruption and greed.

  3. Half Breeds — A defiant anthem of dual heritage, weaponizing identity against oppression and division.

  4. Indian Act — A sharp protest track exposing colonization, systemic racism, and generational trauma.

  5. Stumbled (Prod Brotherhood) — Gritty vignettes of vice and survival, capturing life’s chaos without giving in to the fall.

  6. Heavy (Prod Brotherhood) — A poetic meditation on suffering and resilience, bearing the weight of loss without glory.

  7. Where I Don’t Belong (Prod Brotherhood) — A soul-baring vow to rise above addiction and hardship through resilience and self-belief.
