While the album teaser doesn’t seem all that special, what is noteworthy is that BASSAGONG is currently serving a prison sentence for illegally filming and distributing pictures of fellow rapper Don Mills‘ wife in 2018. He was sentenced to one year in prison and 40 hours of sexual violence treatment. Both the prosecution and BASSAGONG initially appealed the ruling, but in the end, BASSAGONG dropped his appeal and accepted his prison sentence.
