Hydrostatic Equilibrium
Now available as hard copy CD

Hydrostatic Equilibrium is the balance between the force of Gravity and outward pressure due to nuclear reactions in our Sun's core. Basically the two forces push against each other keeping the Sun intact until finally one overcomes the other. Because I'm called the Rising Sun, This album was given this title as I feel it is helping to give me balance in regards to my craft.

'Journey Towards The Sun' Review
By David Pond and Brian LaRue

The Rising Sun Quest, Journey Towards The Sun (risingsunquest.com) A    breath of fresh air for Connecticut hip-hop. Composed of positive content about respect and everyday struggles, conscious rhymes about the system and NPR sound clips, this is the kind of classic that reminds you of KRS-One, Chuck D or the Guru. The production, beats and scratches are just as tight as the rhymes, crossing between Masta Ace's Sitting On Chrome and Guru's Jazzmatazz. The sound is strictly old-school East Coast. The track to bang for your friends is "Take Care of Business"; its soulful hook is inspiring, and makes you want to sing along while bobbing your head to the beat. B-boys, B-girls, writers and DJs best take care of business and go cop this album.
