When you combine the life of a young Chinese-American man with dope lines and heavy West Coast-friendly instrumentals, you’ll probably get something along the lines of Bay Area artist Chow Mane’s debut, the Mooncakes EP. If not, you probably did something wrong in the mix. Cooking lessons aside, this is a pretty legitimate project as it […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @Kelechief Wants Someone to Play With His Hair in New Visuals
Kelechi has a simple request. He just wants to lay up and exchange hair play with that special someone. While I’m bald these days, I can vouch that sometimes that sort of thing is amazing and cutesy.
