[MP3] Noah Vinson – Lemonade

“When life gives you Don Lemon, make lemonade…”

All Instrumentation & Beat creds go to Slakah The Beatchild. Just a collection of personal thoughts & things on my mind.. you may find some of these to be true. Something unexpected! #YoungAndProud15 (this isn’t on my project) BUT know its coming!

The homie (and #DK11 album alum), Noah Vinson goes IN over “Byram’s Groove (Cut a rug)” from the Soul Movement 2 album by Toronto alternative soul maestro and (friend/favorite of The Kitchen), Slakah The Beatchild. Despite all the craziness right now, the mere existence of this song tells me there is still hope and good things in this world.
