Happy Saturday Music Updates
From Red Bull Sound Select, Chicago’s Lucki Eck$ “Weightin’ On“ featuring Detroit rapper Danny Brown fuses together Lucki Eck$’s nonchalant and laid back style with Brown’s unpretentious hip hop skills with a ghettotech tinge. The collaboration was born out of the two having both performed at Red Bull Sound Select’s: 4 Days in Austin this past March, at which Lucki Eck$ opened for Danny Brown as part of Red Bull Sound Select’s effort to pair emerging artists with headlining acts. The track will be released exclusively through Red Bull Sound Select. Check out the track below on my playlist !
