He dropped an exclusive freestyle for HipHopDX (Youtube) and has also appeared in the European reality show Holland in Da Hood (Youtube). “I met !LLMind after a pre-Grammy party around L.A. and I knew I’d like to murder one of his beats one day,” he says about the new single. “Then that day came and now the world can vibe to ‘Boom’. I made sure to sprinkle some extras on it with the Connecticut homie Front Page coming through putting that Caribbean seasoning on it and then I wanted to be extra sharp with the flows. The inspiration behind the record was letting everyone know that authentic hip-hop does not die. It’s what the people want and what fans of what I do expect from me. Top 5 rap s–t every time I step to the mic.”
