Boldy James x Chuck Strangers – Token Of Appreciate

Boldy James and Chuck Strangers, a member of Pro Era, have joined forces on their collaborative effort titled “Token Of Appreciation“. The Alchemist handles the mixing and mastering for this project. “This ‘Token Of Appreciation’ is exactly that – it’s my way of expressing gratitude to my fans who’ve always stood by me,” James says gratefully. “I consider this one of my best projects yet. Chuck is an exceptional producer, truly talented, and this project flows so well. We share a real connection, and we plan on working together more in the future. The Alchemist was the one who mixed it, and he loves it. He’s like my big brother, and his approval means a lot to me. Shout-out to Relly and Wilson Chandler for their support and positive energy that helped me complete this project. I hope the fans will embrace it with as much love and passion as we put into creating it.

Strangers expressed that he couldn’t find a more suitable title for the project than “Token Of Appreciation,” as this name perfectly encapsulates his feelings of gratitude; appreciation for the music they created together, the chance to collaborate with Boldy, and having Alchemist mix and master their project which Strangers produced single-handedly. Strangers further mentioned his excitement about working with Wilson Chandler, a figure he has admired since Chandler played for the New York Knicks during Strangers’ youth in NY. In summary, Strangers is deeply grateful and proud of their collaboration with Boldy, considering the songs they created to be among the best music he’s ever worked on. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the music!
