[MP3] Two Tracks by Bigg Ceaser – Swag Is Dead / Ceasers Palace (prod. by Domingo)
Is there still room for meat n potatoes, trad.-style hip-hop in the (post?)-swag era? I think the success of the Brooklyn-based, Joey Bada$$-led Pro Era crew suggests, yes. Canadian MC, Bigg Ceaser connecting with NYC producer (and homie), Domingo might be more evidence to that effect. Y’all dig?

[MP3] Fresco Blanco & TheHomieQuick – Wake & Bake (featuring Chuck Strangers of Pro.Era)
