Resolution is the second studio album by American hip hop group The Perceptionists. It was released on Mello Music Group on July 28, 2017.[1] Music videos were created for "Hose Down"[2] and "Free at Last".[3]
Shortly after the release of The Perceptionists' debut studio album, Black Dialogue, on Definitive Jux in 2005, DJ Fakts One left the group.[4] The group's remaining members, Mr. Lif and Akrobatik, subsequently released solo material and collaborative material with other artists.[5] In 2017, the two got signed to Mello Music Group and returned with a studio album, titled Resolution.[6]
Paul Simpson of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, stating: "Like the first Perceptionists album, Resolution maintains a heavy focus on socially conscious lyrics, calling out injustice and lamenting the disappointing state of the world." Scott Glaysher of HipHopDX gave the album a 3.4 out of 5, commenting that "Lif and Ak tackle a plethora of topics on the 11-track LP, including police, politics and big Pharma" and "the album has the tendency to come across as a conspiracy theorist's guide to 2017."
