"An underground producer based in the Bay Area, TOMC3 has dropped a few dope concept albums over the years, most notably Project Poloroid with Kool Keith. On Simian Samurai, he joins forces with Prince Po from Organized Konfusion, supporting the Queens legend with an array of freaky instrumentals. Weaving dirty guitar snippets, unorthodox time signatures, chaotic percussion, and impossibly obscure samples, his unique sonic compositions are a refreshing break from the norm, and fit Po's highly charismatic, wide-ranging rhymes to a T. From the sexually mischievous ""Candy"" to the stroll down memory lane ""Now and Then"" and the swinging, horn-fueled ""I'm Hatin',"" all 14 tracks are rock solid and unusually original. Guest appearances are limited but exceptional, with verses from AG, Kool Keith, Motion Man, and Del."
