Listen: Souls of Liberty – "Steelo 13"


The Souls of Liberty is a duo from St. Louis, MO that I've watched grow over the years. I heard some of their early content and even watched them open up for Kendrick Lamar a few months back. The Souls dropped "Steelo 13" recently and it's a bit of a different sound from them, I like it.

Check out "Steelo 13" after the jump.

Watch: June - "Run The Town" (Prod. by Teddy Walton)

After dropping his debut project "Evol", Memphis representer June took some time to refocus after a loss in the family. Time off for the now Cali resident is never really in the cards. The young grinder seems to always be working one way or another. With dapper production on the track from his brother Teddy Walton and great shots from Nicely Rolled Productions, the visual for "Run The Town" turned out real nice. I first got up on this artist a couple years ago at SXSW and he has done nothing but impress ever since. Check out the visual below and cop the whole project here.
