An honest portrayal of breakdowns, growth, and grind—“MODERN CHAOS” stands out as an authentic hip-hop album.

“MODERN CHAOS” is all about the truth of life. Rather than chasing trends, Joshua aims to spread a message through this album. Consisting of twelve tracks, opening with "Birmingham," which talks about resilience and identity, the collection is a personal life portrayal of DJThriller. “No Time to Die” speaks to urgency, survival, and facing the harsh realities of life. It blends raw emotions with crisp lyricism. “Not Ready” is a reflective and introspective track about hesitation and self-doubt.

Where “Philosophy” portrays real-life struggles, sleepless nights, financial stress, and heartbreak, “Down a Broken Record” addresses a cycle of pain and repetition. “Our Minds in Zytopia” dives into mental and emotional chaos with themes like overthinking and anxiety. “Blade Runner” offers modern vibes with gritty undertones, with a sharp commentary. “Locked N Loaded” is high on energy, a defiant anthem showcasing DJThriller’s confidence and readiness to face adversity. “JK BITCH” is the closing track with a raw, and unapologetic tone. Overall, “MODERN CHAOS” is a bold fusion of jazz-infused hip-hop and authentic storytelling.
