Sean Slaughter is the son of well known worship leader Alvin Slaughter. In a recent interview Sean confessed his desire to see both platinum sales and a platinum number of souls saved. The influences on this album are highly contemporary and commercial, as is much of the subject matter. Sean Slaughter openly admits he wanted the album to be the kind that would appeal to the MTV audience. This is apparent right from the opening track "Die Daily" which sets the tone for this excellent album with fast and precise delivery over an epic East Coast track. Across the album we find Sean Slaughter mixing up a gritty style yet with a really smooth delivery. There are a couple of beats that could've been changed up a little but musically and sample-wise, the album is diverse, with well conceived production. In "Love Jones" we get more down tempo with gentle backing vocals, as Sean Slaughter often talks about his daughter. "Pop Off" is a good party tune where we get a little more crunk. "Don't Cry" beautifully recounts the story of Job, showing a real story-telling gift. In "Beautiful" Sean delivers an encouragement to women's inner beauty with great insight over the vocal hook. We end with "Undefeated", a determination to walk undefeated as a soldier of Christ.
