That BKLYN mixtape shit. It's a family ties thing.

What We Have Is (w Sonny Lewis)

A few years back I had the opportunity to contribute to a project, Songs in the Key of Rap by Anthony Antoine, a long time friend, comrade, and brother in Rhyme. I was first introduced to him long before we met because he spit the verses on Ronny Jordan's "Under Your Spell" which is a fav. Long history and love this brother.

I rediscovered it recently and have never shared it with most people, so enjoy:  All My Life (I Had 2 Fight) featuring Tim'm West, Xenial & Larry the Poet
