All Of That Said

Evidence has the most relaxed delivery. That, combined with his raspy voice, makes his output absolutely classic to my ears.

Without the sweetness to offset the spicy the heat might have been a bit too much but there's a nice mix of flavour that works so well together. These bang, they're a heavy flavourful heat. Sort of a spicier Louisiana. The Mighty Mighty Bosstones are a gr
