About the EP: “Profound Knowledge is a short story about finding inner peace. This project was written during a very exciting time in my life. It was the week leading up to the release of my album Funky MC and I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep. I’d stay up all night coming up with an album promotion plan. I felt this creative surge and was inspired to write an introspective project. The biggest influence for the concept of Profound Knowledge comes from The Snowy Day by author Ezra Jack Keats. The spiritual lyrics were inspired by MC extraordinaire Rakim’s book Sweat the Technique. The music was inspired by Beastie Boys’ Check Your Head, Joy Division’s – Unknown Pleasures, Motorama’s Before The Road, MILANOSPORT’s Concrete, and Rakim’s The Master.” – Zachary Campos.
Zachary Campos serves as the composer and lyricist, with Josh Zuckermann and Tim J Abbott contributing as producers. Santiago Diaz is responsible for the album artwork, while Monique Lucero provided the inspiration for the project.
