What I'm Watching: G-Eazy "All I Could Do"



This is one of my favorite tracks off of G-Eazy's The Endless Summer project. Shot by Matty B during the first week on tour with Shwayze, Cisco Adler & MOD SUN and edited by G-Eazy in a hotel room in Denver during a day off. And that's a pretty dope back story. Enjoy All I Could Do. Chea!

JK1 The Supernova - 1st Come 1st Served Vol​.​ 2 & 3

I'm over here playing catch up to JK1's 1st Come 1st Served with his last two volumes. Feels like I'm at a restaurant ordering on an empty stomach the way I'm catching up. Track after track I'm on a head nod zone and just like Volume 1, no disappointments here. Amazing how easy you can find talented emcees giving out free music. Check this out, listen, download, all that. If you thought Vol 1 was dope, then no worries on these two volumes here.
