Heads: Lid Law
The only way to describe this rapper from Chicago is to visualize animation that has jumped off of the page of an urban comic book storyline right at the climax.

Our MTP LP, currently flying off the shelves in a streetwear store near you, has gotten some ink in German Sneakers magazine.
