Blessings + Peace. We hope that you’re enjoying the season and that life is treating you well. We’re proud to be a part of a special musical release that involves a good friend of ours. For about 16 years now, we have watched the growth of this MC, from performing at local shows to releasing his debut album with the renowned OhNo of Stones Throw fame. It has been a long time coming that he positioned himself to release material on his own, and during such trying times, it is quite suitable that he show the independence that a strong Father can–to fulfill his DREAM, regardless of what the odds may be. Be a part of his journey and please follow this link to download C.Keys / Infamous MC’s “Reconstruction Mixtape” for FREE as a Prelude to his forthcoming album “Sophisticated Hood”. Wishing you the best in 2010 w/ Fresh Beats + Rhymes from The Bay Area. One Love. http://bit.ly/8lDWrg
