DANEJA MENTALE "TRUTH & CONSEQUNCES"


Followed by Renegunn's "199Gunn", Daneja Mentale's "Truth & Consequences" is an uneven project. Due to the restrictions of a local studio, the album suffers from the lack of energy in the songs. Truth be told, Daneja recorded this album after Renegunn was "banned" from the same studio for their use of profanity. Actually... that's far from the truth. Only a few Renegunn members know the REAL reason. Anyway, Daneja sought out to record this album for the first time without the use of a 4-track recorder (some tracks were still recorded at home). The studio's owner allowed Daneja to record despite the fact that he said he would no longer do so. This didn't go so well with KD LMR and the rest of Renegunn. First the single "44 DM" was recorded there, and next profanity was on the album. Gabe Holland shows up on "Easy Way Out". Now... here is where the drama starts. KD hears a rumor leading to the speculation that "Easy Way Out" was directed toward him. Daneja denied all accusations, but didn't convince KD. So he directs a diss toward Daneja, Gabe, P.O.T.Y. (funny fact: P.O.T.Y. is KD's cousin), and Omega Red (original Renegunn member). Daneja tried to make peace but was hit with another diss. That diss led to the infamous "Vendetta" where no prisoners are taken (except for Cosmo, who remained neutral during the beef). That moment had become the most hostile for both rappers (they once had beef in 1995. hence "9 Livez"). Other noteworthy tracks are: "Blind" and "Voice & Valuables" which are more positive in content. This is the track listing for the original pressing with silence from tracks 23 to 42. The reissue placed "Vendetta" 30 seconds after "Outro" and the infamous "When Haters Call" skit is omitted.
