Read moreCalez – Dolla Bill [Stream]
Calez is back with a new joint called “Dolla Billa”. MMac on the beat. Listen below. “Money can change a lot of things: your house, the girls who want to talk to you, and even the shape of your front lawn. So when I reach that threshold of enough dolla bills, you can believe that I’ll be switching up a few things in my life. One thing that won’t change is my dedication to making music for every facet of your life. After dropping my last project, the ever peaceful, Ceito, I’ve been preparing a more Trap oriented EP, Work Easy. This first release from that EP, produced by MMac and mixed by Johnny Darko. This heavy thumper should provide you with enough motivation to make that dream in the back of your head become reality.” – Calez

Last year Dungeon Family-inspired Atlanta rap collective Spillage Village, whose ranks include EarthGang, J.I.D., Hollywood JB, Jordon Bryant, Marian Mereba, 6lack from LVRN, and OG Maco, shared a wistful, left-leaning and jazz-laced project called Bears Like This. They’ve since clocked even more time noodling int he studio together, and on July 6 they will unleash a sequel to that project, Bears Like This Too (get it?). But first, a little preview: “TEN TEN,” an supremely spaced-out and occasionally giggly free-form meditation on, well, a lot of things, from EarthGang. J.I.D. and OG Maco get the assist. Listen below, and get more like this when Bears Like This Too drops July 6th. via The FADER
