We're a week late on posting this (a week is like a year in terms of internet time), but SF's True Clothing dropped a new 4/20 pack that includes a dope mixtape featuring DaVinci.

The mixtape, Fly The Friendly Skies, was put together by our good friends Get.Live.Ro and DJ Boogie Brown from Get.Live.SF.  You can download the mix at Mixcrate, or yodel at one of them on Twitter for a hard copy.  (I'm pretty sure the True packs are sold out at this point.)

DaVinci - Trickle Down (Montage Episode 1)

January 27, 2010

DaVinci - Trickle Down (Prod. Blunt)

As DaVinci raps, "Hate is power, love is a weakness / You do wrong the right way, they call you a genius," the rising Bay Area emcee's powerful message resonates loud and clear – what's valued in the streets seems to be exactly what is valued in politics too. This is the trickle down effect that grips the government and the community.
