Jonezy keeps his lyrical edge and intensity while exploring playful beats full of live instruments and eccentricities. Working with a variety of musicians from different genres, this album appeals to the underground, commercial, and crossover crowds, bringing the emphasis back to lyricism while being much more experimental, and bringing a more "live" feel than most hip hop projects out today. The title, SOAR THUMBS, is a play on words, implying that the project is worthy of a "thumbs up", and also the music itself sticks out like a "sore thumb" in comparison to everyday hip-hop and rap music
