Future Classic: MonoPoly “Manifestations EP”
I am working on a strictly beats mixtape for a radio show right now and although I really love that stuff, I find it’s really one of the genres that has the most really generic and forgettable stuff. Don’t get me wrong, I love that abstract space age hip-hop meets …
