Aleon Craft & George Clinton – “Places To Fly” by SMKA

Aleon Craft and the legendary George Clinton havea project out that is iller than this artwork (that artwork is ill) . it brings Funk and Decatur together for a vibe that only Georgia is capable of producing.

Sugar & Gold – Get Wet! (Review)

Sugar & Gold

Get Wet!
