I Still Love H.E.R. - Hip Hop Blog
A salute to smokey meditations & the enterprising nightlife, Scott Ramirez presents Gold Leaf, the second single from the Monte Cristo album.
Over crisp break beats and a wintry atmosphere produced by Justunlimited, Gold Leaf is a song best enjoyed during a midnight ride through the neighborhood or after-hours loitering by a castle.

Scott Ramirez presents his first full length album, Monte Cristo. Taking inspiration from an Ol’ Dirty Bastard rhyme & the novel by Alexander Dumas, this is a 12 track journal chronicling late smokey nights, self-therapy in between jobs, the daily grind for paper & intoxicated meditations on the pursuit of the good life.
With production handled by Justunlimited, ELMNT, Don Know & DJ TooM; collaborative features with HuNu, Rez Raida, Jaff Daniels, Colonel Clockwork & Lord Fury; Monte Cristo is a dusty journey forged from hallowed rap traditions & a forward guerrilla focus over breakbeats & 808s.
Written in smokey subterranean dwellings, Monte Cristo is the opening salvo by Scott Ramirez, who’s ardently readying his first upcoming major LP titled Monte Cristo. Produced by Justunlimited, a soundscape of heavy drums and a haunting sample provide the backdrop for this Toronto griot’s all-terrain poetic prescriptions. Lace your boots up, grab your hardhats & overstand it.
