X.O SENAVOE SPOKE FOR COLLEAGUE RAPPERS ON GHOST

  Hearing a highly respected artist mention on a song, his respect for a colleague artiste is endearing. It is even remarkable when the artiste who is getting the props is not hugely popular. It’s like hearing Kendrick Lamar mention Killer Mike’s name as doing authentic hip hop yet his albums aren’t hitting platinum standards although hip hop fans say […]
