DON’T SLEEP: ΜIC ΤΗΞ DΓUΜϟ “HOMETOWN HI -FI EP” [BEAT TAPE]
This is a perfect example of what happens when I check my messages late. I was sent a DM about this jawn last week which I would’ve seen immediately in my other phone. Since I’m down to the one I just saw this jawn last night and I gave it a listen while I was running through the end of my old PIK posting queue (which was over 50 posts). I immediately started a new one up. I’ll be done by tonight. Don’t sleep on ΜIC ΤΗΞ DΓUΜϟ’ Dubstep/Trap/Grime inspired “HOMETOWN HI -FI EP”…
