"You was lookin' for likes, I was lookin' for life."

DJ Hexi0n slows it down with a self-produced R&B cut that hits different at 3AM. No more games, no more rereading old chapters. Just the sound of moving on and leveling up.

This is the first glimpse of the new soundscape I've been working on in the vault. The Trap album was just the intro; this is the feeling.
