Today is AK's 25th birthday. The Underachievers emcee celebrated as the clock struck midnight by releasing a new track called "Illuminate."

"Illuminate" is closer in style and spirit to Evermore - The Art of Duality than The Underachievers recent tape It Happened in Flatbush. AK's delivery is enlightened, weightless, though he still goes harder than 90% of contemporary rappers.

Quotable Lyrics

Don't got time to be upset at my losses
