Signif - "Friction"

She's never been on 2 Dope Boyz but she's about to tour Europe ... again.

Our sis Signif drops off her latest offering, Friction. Having been involved in some way or another on her last few projects, and as a fan, it's so dope to watch the NYC by way of Milwaukee emcee continue to grow musically each time she steps in front of a microphone. On the new project she holds no punches as she delivers up hard hitting rhymes over production from the likes of Radio Raheim, Moteleola, JBM Beatz, Fate and more. This is her finest work and you should definitely be paying attention. Enjoy the tunes.
