I don't know how people are so anti-Griselda when songs like this are coming out of it:

Although Westside Gunn rapping about ugly designer luggage while, on the same album, his brother is rapping about his cousin hanging himself and holding his stillborn baby in the hospital, is pretty tasteless. Conway the Machine is full of heart, I really appreciate his music.

This is Little Stranger, indie hip hop duo reppin Charleston (843 babyyyy).

They're very talented and catchy without being poppy - they have a real Tribe x early Outkast vibe with more live instrumentation. A lot of good wit and satirical humor. Super sick tunes, check em out.

One of our clients started using a model that looks like Edan so I dug this one out and have been listening to it non-stop. One of my favorites.

I met a group of french exchange students while I was living in NYC and they wanted to see live rap music while they were in the USA. I took them to see Edan. We had an absolute blast. I'd love if he released another rap album one day.
