Data Insight

All ten tracks carry the group and none carries only the group: Black Milk writes on every one. Handing a whole record to one outside producer is what Muggs used to do, and this is the first time somebody else did it.

Back in Black came out on MNRK in March 2022, produced by Black Milk. At 32:29 it is the shortest album the group has made.
