This is a more recent track, and while I believe it's important to release my music in order of creation. I also want to release things I really love. Here's a taste of some stuff made this January.
I've found myself with a bunch of different styles, and I'm super stoked to release a few more mixtapes this year. Currently planning on releasing and tossing a final mix on spotify of my Mixtape titled bottle as well as working in the Mix for Lunchbox. Really stuck on it to tell you the truth. Just got my CPU up and running so that should do the trick, but we'll see. *edit (It's deffinetly doing the trick) 
I appreciate everyone's kind word's, help, and support, yall the shit.

Oh and btw thank's to Bailey's killer lease agreement yall can download this for free via the drop down menu, simply click the direct download tab and you'll be g2g.

Stay good my friend's; Mason

Cleaned up this Track prior to uploading it to Spotify and wanted to share it with you guy's as I finish up my mixes on the next tape. I think you'll dig it. Got a neat experimental Jazz vibe to it, bringing in some new flow's. This upcoming tape's small but concentrated, super wavy and I'm pretty pumped to show it to yall as well. 

Stay good my friend's.

Bottle

Bottle.

Recorded Jan. 28th 21

Thanks for hanging with me guy's.

If you heard this prior to it's delete and are wondering what happened, I accidentally uploaded a current demo I'm working on in place of S.O.T.D.'s file. 

but yeah, Song of the day. 

Here's the actual track.

Sorry about the metronome bleed, It was done such a long time ago, we riding with it.

Beat Produced By the very talented AE Beat's, you can find the homie on YT.

Stay Good; Mason

S.O.T.D.

Initially recorded Dec. 8th 2020.

Been sifting for a minute in the old vault to find the most complete yet oldest track I had. After a bit of mix adjustment a few year's later wahzah, here we are. Nice lil Guitar joint, shows a lot of my ridiculous character while still staying frothy at times. And now back to modern times, been making a lot of breakthroughs as and engineer, continuing to press a few songs a week. 

Really appreciate yall's support, I say it every drop but my analytics have been picking up.

Stay good till next time; Mason

BAKESALE.

BAKESALE. (prod.PieperBeats)

Created Nov. 2nd 2020.

Another track from the vault, as we move forward less and less is needed to polish. It's allowing me too kick back and create. A space I've needed to regain for a long time.

This track was Freestyled/punched in over a period of a 3 sessions.

At this point a few years ago i was finding solidarity in using the same compressor set up in most songs, which created a nice cohesive sound which allows for a hint of distinction between myself and others.

Cool example of hopping in and out of pocket as well, really dig the "Rip-Chord" bar.

As always it's been a pleasure and i appreciate yall for rockin w/me.

Until next time, Stay Good yall.

Rip-Chord.

Rip-Chord. Prod. MHZ

Gonna try something a little different, see how it goes.
Wanted to put out a tape in this format for a while, today it all kinda fell together so here we are. Nice lil 15 minute joint, ranging from some neat vocal harmonies to more bar focused rhyme schemes.

Self Help From a Mirrors Perspective

599 prod. BTMJ

An Odd Future'esque Tape.

I always wanted to make something like this as a kid.

This tape was all recorded early too mid 2021, lot's of recording in the cold but overall a good time. Lot's of progress made as both a artist as well as a engineer. 

Funny you don't think about it but every rough mix turned passable
really does help you grow. I've got a process now, and let me tell you
the vault has never been fuller. 

Gotta get some stuff out so we can move down the line. 

Super excited.

As always, Stay Good; 

Mason.

599 & Friends

599 & Friends Ft BARDO, STOIC BEATS, and BTMJ

Created a bit further down the road that the previous "599 & Friends" tape, but never the less a more polished version of Lyle's sporadic rhyme scheme's.  T.S. was originally meant to go alongside that tape but with such different mixing styles I felt it deserved it's own slot. 
This next bit of music I've sighted in for release should be exciting.
Lot's of tracks and inspiration have come from this Producer.
I'll be pumping out singles for a bit as I get together a full mix on that tape. 

Big up's too LIM0 and Chris J as without them this upcoming collection would be a lot less interesting.

As always thanks for coming to kick it for a bit

Stay good yall;
Mason




"I been fiendin for day's

Oh this hustle all alchemy they can't fuck with the sage

For the paper i'm a mad man get it stan?
Lyle got the game plan, Take up from Beez
Got a set ah doe's

Sleepin on meh
I Don't blame em 
when I'm raisin it's Four

I'm Out the thatchet, cover my skin when it's torn
Bread from the cupboard
Mary got me closer to source
Just a man in the cave with the torch."

True Steppah. Prod. LIM0

Intro. (slowed
When you here my bike got no steer
I dread the time that you leave, I know that it near
Then it's back to myself, What the fuck is a pair?
I could buy me a home, they told me that's rare.

Pre Chorus.

When you here my bike got no steer
I dread the time that you leave, I know that it near
Then it's back to myself, What the fuck is a pair?
I could buy me a home, they told me that's rare.

When you here my bike got no steer
I dread the time that you leave, I know that it near
Then it's back to myself, What the fuck is a pair?

I could buy me a home, they told me that's rare.

Verse 1.

You know me, I know you, so maybe thats how
it sposed to be how rude

Never what you wanna hear so they tell you what 
you do.

He staying and he leavin for someone new
Blowin that hoe's back out, charge the EBT for the
food.

A free breakfast never tasted better but when it's 
cold out lose everything that matters

And that season right around the corner hard to
steer throught the snow.

(don't worry, you've done no damage.)
(You was in a hurry and i was just landin)

I'm here to enjoy life, posted on the turnpike, 

You can come wit me these dreams help me 
sit right.

And that season right around the corner.

(Hard too steer in the snow)

Hard too steer in the snow, gotta get it in gear.

My day's look allright when you here.

(When you here) my bike got no steer.

I dread the time that you leave.

I know that it near.

What the fuck is a pair?


Chorus.

When you here my bike got no steer I dread the
time that you leave I know that it near.
Then it's back too myself, what the fuck is a pair

I could buy me a home, they told me thats rare

When you here my bike got no steer I dread the
time that you leave I know that it near.
Then it's back too myself, what the fuck is a pair

I could buy me a home, they told me thats rare

Verse 2.
Never feel like it doe, i should grow me a pair.

tall seqoias carved round in the bannister stairs.

Tell me I shoulda known, I'm made of vineer

Shoulda left you alone but it hurt me to go.

Don't believe that I'm real.

Did it all on my own, gimme somthing to feel.

Standin in the center and its hot in this field.

(Everybodies on fire)

See I once was in the shoes that you was standin
Don't worry you've done no damage.
You was in a hurry and i was just landin.

Might as well call it that than poor plannin.

I'm fixated everything happen for a reason,

Maybe it do, maybe it don't maybe it go maybe
 I (glow)

Chorus.

When you here my bike got no steer I dread the
time that you leave I know that it near 

Then it's back too myself, what the fuck is a pair
I could buy me a home they told me thats rare
Never feel like it though, I should grow me a pair
Tall sequoias carved round in the bannister stairs.
Then it's back too myself, what the fuck is a pair?

I could buy me a home, (Never feel like it doe)
 they told me thats rare.

Outro.
So maybe this is how it's supposed it be

If i wasn't by myself I couldn't create these things.

You see.

I am my only enemy, yesterday he said hi twice

Not a coincidence in this life 

You know me I know you so maybe this how its 
supposed to be how rude 

Never what you wanna hear, so they tell you what
you do.

He stayin and he leavin for someone new. 

(Blowin that hoe's back out, charge the EBT for the 
food, a free breakfast)

As always, stay good folks;

Mason

Unsure when this was created, I believe sometime around fall 2021 as that would fit the overall sound and timeframe. 

Stay tuned; Mason

Beat produced by Pieper Beats

Prana Prod. Pieper Beats

This was made summer 2021, a well put together piece from the vault as I began finding a nice core structure. Most hooks in the past were created as a second thought or by chance. This was a great mix too, I began forcing myself to complete what I'm doing in a session as to minimize the different vocal ranges used. Often times I would return months later and by then matching that energy or cadence was near impossible. Another trick in the bag. Looking back now I've found that those "Do's and Don'ts" I've outlined for myself quite the repertoire of quality control parameters. I think the move from here is to continue to make what I enjoy and push all of this music on the back end. My life has recently gotten substantially better, and I'm pretty much balling out mentally. A nice change, but even nicer current day projects are reflecting that. Overshadowing where I was in a considerable amount. There is no more sad music, but I am happy to have experienced what I have for these compositions wouldn't exist if not. Enjoying the journey.

*edit Really happy you guy's like it : )

This shits bussin, nice funky vibe some sort of revival thing going on. produced summer of 2021 just did a little leveling.

Keep trying to put out tracks only to find other people have purchased leases and whatever determines if a song is being used legally continues to strike down my leased songs. Sucks, it really is a war of attrition. I've trained created and stacked music for such a long time only too a good portion being lost. However, had I released per song I would have been discouraged in the moment and not have near the amount of music in the vault that I do currently. I still believe I'm doing it right. A lot of people have really counted me off. I get tired sometimes, I can't keep up with a lot of things in my life. But I always force myself with diligence to create. I have too, I cannot allow anything to stop what I may make next.  Feel's like a battle with myself outside of work and family life. I want very badly to go out and be like other people but this never ending search for whatever I'm looking for is more important. 

Weird how life works isn't it?

Created March 2021

Another cool lil piece from the vault. This one just took some gain leveling throughout. Getting a bit faster and more "up for the challenge" from a engineering perspective. Hoping to keep that energy and continue to space releases closer together. 

Looking for people with open verse's I dig, so send em my way.

(edit) It has come to my attention that Track 4 is seriously lacking in the mix, as I cannot replace it currently, expect a re mastered single in the near future.

All made in 2021,. had to really peel the gum from my boot making this. I think it's become such a big deal to put all this together I'm becoming avoidant. Qualities I really don't like embodying are seeming to become the norm. Indecision, and unsure of my direction constantly has lead to some great creations, but also stifled the cohesive nature that a true album can bring to the table. I've divided what I do have into sub categories, which has helped a bit. But now the question is, what to continue making modern day. Should i stop experimenting so much? Focus on one style and get it down pat? And also how to transition from showing you guys boom bap, to trap, to uke type stuff and then back to boom bap. In reality, it probably doesn't matter but I wish I knew where I was going.

Till next time.

Stay Good; Mason.

THE LIM0 TAPE. prod by LIM0

Kinda throwing it out there, It's late and I can't get to my car to check and see where the vocal/mix is sitting. I've been working on this for a week or so. As a final attempt I figured I'd run some parallel compression. Outside of the mumbo jumbo tho, thing's are going pretty good. Learning more tricks but ultimately my mic etiquette is gotten really disciplined leading to more music being made faster modern day. I'm going to toss a master on this if it sucks, I'll go back to the drawing board.

Nifty album art though huh?

PEPPERCORN prod. ZEHBOOG

Another track from the Though I Figured It All Now collection. 
Created initially Jan of 2021 it's quite reminiscent of older tracks like bottle and wafer. A vocal experiment using layers, which at times is very hard to mix. I believe this is the final edit however that may change in the future if I notice some discrepancies in the mix. Two or three more tracks in this collection, "BABY" and "PENDLETON". Those will come out in the near future, just don't want to get to ahead of my self before properly evaluating the first two tracks. PEPPERCORN is receiving good feedback though I have concerns in the mix. So we shall see, perhaps a nice set of KRK's are in my future.

Until next time;

Stay good yall.

Ghost. Feat. Chris J.(Prod.bySekani)

My what’s remix of Jack Harlow’s “What’s Poppin”.
I’ve got a lot of work in front of me facing this next year and a half. 
So much left too polish.
I’m excited to see where this next album goes.
I’ve been really pushing myself in both my daily life and musically to better myself. Prior to this year, my entire life was dead end. This last four year’s of my life I hadn’t been eating, I religiously ignored self care, and would only making enough money to scathe by.
I urge you to start somewhere.
All good thing’s start somewhere.
Stay good my friend’s.
