Produced by Anwar Marshall, Jack Union, and Anthony Bell, "A List Of Demands" is a tribute to the griot tradition entrenched in Black music, while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of contemporary musical trends.
The album kicks off with "Night Night", a reminder that Khemist Mayfield, one of Philadelphia's finest rappers is also a remarkable singer, guitarist, and poet. Tracks like "Mexico" offer metaphorical tales of temporary and permanent escapes to paradises, while songs like "Hurt Undying" encapsulate the aftermath of tragedy. Rounding off the album is the country ballad "Every Bit Of It", a poignant portrayal of escapism's destructive consequences.
Khemist Mayfield's expert blend of genres - from boom-bap to rock, dancehall, and country, serves to create a timeless call to bear witness the realities of streets where opportunity remains elusive. Delivering his verses with raw urgency and accompanied by his trusty guitar, Khemist encapsulates seminal moments of the streets in his lyrics. "A List Of Demands" is not merely an album, it is the resonating echo that reverberates when the hammer hits the anvil.

Lyrics
Mexico
On top
you go up and down i watch
if you dont get to get it asap
you gon be up all thru the night
goin through withdraw for the you know
feining for it all around the clock
Off track wandering in the cuts with a dire need to connect the dots
you gon put the rocks in the cooker
then put the water on the rocks
let it sun bathe for a minute
whip it and stir it up nice
cigarrete butts soak it all up
the filter for your paradise
belt around her arm so your life won’t sag gotta raise up a vein for a flight
Go and hit yaself about 4 times 1-2-3-4
your target should be locked
you been down for way too long I see game on and you gotta aim up
To get the air bubbles out the way
And to solve that problem you just give some plucks
now put in slow and deep that’s peace no such thing as late love
CHORUS: Right on time
it is always
Drawing you in
Calling your name
calming your mind
turning you on
rushing to you like
Mexico waves and sand
On cloud 9
it is always
Drawing you in
Calling your name
calming your mind
turning you on
Got you splashing like
Thats key
you can make a bathroom a beach
discount prices on resorts
from a travel agent on the street
diggin in couches for da bread
So you can fly there it’s that deep
you found the oasis that was made just for you but the all inclusive deals aint cheap
you can’t wait to put on your bikini
walking with sand under ya feet
waving at seagulls flying by
good weed and coconut drinks
as much as you visit that place
thats gon be a never ending thing
a thing that you’ll never get to wake up from but you love it so you never will complain
they knocking on the bathroom door 1-2-3-4 but you still on vacay
now you gettin hot and wet from the sweat but at the beach you can feel a cool breeze
nothin comes close to the feelin deepin in you every time it be like special D
got a date with destiny on the beach forever not breathing but at least it ain’t late
