MC DARJ VADOR This is probably one of the most underrated efforts in the history of soul music. My best kept secret. Timeless music and compositions from an amazing artist. Rhxanders please come up with the sequel. Yet I will come back to this record til the day I die.

MC G In a world that is increasingly becoming man vs technology, wielding a deeply introspective work with a vocoder to speak of uniquely human experiences is a class of its own. We’ve never been more connected with the rest of the world, but with ‘questioning answers / answering questions’, rhxanders also bridges the often complicated relationship we have with ourselves.

similarobjects rhxanders masterfully translates his stories on love and pain into such potent gems of creative/musical energy.

i'd say this is among one of the most powerful Jazz, soul, hiphop inspired records to come out of Southeast Asia and is easily on it's way to becoming a timeless classic.

rh xanders is the true epitome of lowkey legendary. Favorite track: it's strange.

it's strange 03:03
I wanna know what it is that you're feeling The look on your face and your tone is revealing I know you don't know that I know, I can see it Put on a show, let's throw some belief in I wanna know why you continue to feed it The grass only green cause he won't go and weed it Planted a seed, but the water's depleted Rooted in me, and they all can see it Won't you give me a sign? where should I turn? Or is it just that I don't know when it's about time for our bridge to burn? Are we really gonna make it through all of this together? Or is the path which tears us asunder the only way that we can make it better?

lie to me 03:00
Baby, just keep on lying to me I could pretend that I don't know You can tell me that there's nothing there When it always seems to show Keep on lying to me I could pretend that there ain't nothing there Keep telling me "there ain't no need to be scared" Make me believe with a stare Tell me those words weren't said Tell me the feeling ain't dead Tell me those words weren't said Tell me the feeling ain't dead You don't love me anymore You don't love me anymore You don't love me anymore You're not in love with me no more

is it real? 02:32
Let me know if it's real Please, won't you tell me if it's real? Let me know if it's real Please, won't you tell me if it's real? Tryna keep everything natural Live and love in the truth, passing on what ain't factual But actually, the fiction seems to get the best of me Especially in this city, constantly caught up in my daydream Got enough passion to keep on creating but all this Inner frustration keep making us cave in And I'm just looking for a way in, they're judging while they're waitin' He know he got the sauce, ain't no mistakin' Give it all he got and put himself on the side That's why I'd say "it's only you and me" when you think I'm gon' slide I've been making these opportunities, hoping that you could ride But if it don't work between you and me, rest assured that I might out of reach Maybe chillin' on a beach, spliff in hand Too much to comprehend, leave me in peace Away from the city's stress, got everything within reach But is it really real? It beats me So please, Let me know if it's real Please, won't you tell me if it's real? Let me know if it's real Please, won't you tell me if it's real? Let me know if it's real Please, won't you tell me if it's real? Let me know if it's real Please, won't you tell me if it's real?

Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions I don't even know where I am going I'm just tryna make it through the moment Noticing my emotions overflowing Feeling all the hurt growing Now I know it's more than you and me And it's so plain for us to see That the only way for us to be free Is to let it be and to trust in peace But I keep Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions And we both know there's something going on We can't seem to figure it out But we gotta find a new route We can't keep on running around Always got our head in the clouds Always gotta talk a little louder Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions Questioning answers and answering questions

crazy 04:38
Girl, you know you drive me crazy But you're my baby Do you wanna leave or stay? Why does it have to be this way? Girl, you know you drive me crazy But you're my baby Do you wanna leave or stay? Why does it have to be this way? I just want you to understand I've been trying the best I can I know it might be hard for you to see But baby, you're the other half of me As long as we got time to live I got a lot of love to give You don't make it easy But there's something about our love I still believe in You know you drive me crazy But you're my baby Do you wanna leave or stay? Why does it have to be this way?
