The Kid Daytona is running with Cipha Sounds. As shocking as this may sound.. it has a dope 90s vibe. The CNN verse makes you think this is some shit filmed like 10 years ago.

An interesting follow up to knobbz stellar interview.  

Funny shit.  I like when he spanks the whale.

Ranking among Hip-Hop on the exclusive list of things I truly love in this world: mexican food.  Thats right, greasy, down and dirty, sand in your ass Mexican Food.  A San Diego taco shop is often my happy place when I am suffering the Canadian winter.  To tell you the truth, I can think of nothing more congruous with the essence of my being than a steaming carne asada burrito smothered in salsa that makes your eyes water. 

My brother, also a product of the southern california lifestyle, shares my obsession.  So when he moved to NYC recently he lamented for a proper mexican place.  The search began.  And he turned his search into a blog called Lost Taco.  I mention it mostly because he’s my brother, but also because its important info (especially if your in the area) and its pretty funny.  

I dedicate this song to you brave taco hunter.
