The Best Hollywood Director No One Talks About

Arlo ze Artist
Arlyne Ramirez a.k.a. Arlo Ramz is an artistic force to be reckoned with. She just did some work on this project I’m involved with that is too-cool-for-school. Until that premieres, go here for a glimpse into her totally original imagination.

D. Palms = FRESH →
D. Palms is a new hip hop artist I got linked to today. I’m really digging these first few tracks. His style’s like a cross between Jadakiss and Slug from Atmosphere. Hit the title above to listen.
