Defining Boss is the third Boss album on Flophouse Records. This is twelve songs of social critique and self-reflection. Sometimes direct, and sometimes a storyteller, Boss lays down compelling rhymes full of substance and clever turns-of-phrase.

On this release, we don’t see a rapper trying for a hot single, but a writer exposing his inner thoughts and laying down his legacy.
Defining Boss retains Boss’s rhythmic skills while adding the juxtaposition of melodic vocals.

Straight-up and no-frills, being produced solely by Xavier Lazerus who worked on the previous Finding Boss and Boss Is.
