After the huge success of Billion Dollar Dream album (released in 2022), Jeriq serves us the Deluxe Version of the project which comes with 6 new tracks to kick start 2023.
As the follow up to 2020`s Hood Boy Dreams EP, Jeriq `s debut album (BILLION DOLLAR DREAM) sees him unleash new levels to his ambition. “After making the millions I dreamt of with the EP, things changed””the money I thought was a lot of money became smaller by the day, Not because I was running out of money, but because even though I had fulfilled the hood boy dreams, I had to make the dream bigger.” say JeriQ.
A testament to the insatiable nature of ambition, the album is Jeriq`s declaration of his singular focus to succeed””and his acknowledgement of what the journey may cost him. It`s a journey of levelling-up encapsulated in the title track””yet its on other cuts, like “Back To Basics” and “True Life Story”, where Jeriq reveals the less materialistic, more mission-driven goal of an eldest son who wants to provide for his family in the wake of losing the family patriarch.
There`s a spiritual element of gratitude here, too, as “Oluoma” adds the highlife stylings of Flavour to the mix; elsewhere, Jeriq and Alpha P fuse the confidence of younger generations with experience-borne wisdom on “Backdoor”. The deluxe version adds six extra tracks, including the Phyno-assisted hustler`s anthem, “My Bro”.
