Up & Away

High-gloss West Coast rap defined by sun-drenched synths and infectious melodic hooks. A polished independent debut built for summer nights and club floors.

The ultimate 2012 summer soundtrack that makes every drive feel like you're heading to a beach party.

An infectious, high-energy celebration of success and youth set against a shimmering West Coast backdrop.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The explosive, synth-heavy chorus of Time of Your Life that defines the 2012 melodic rap era.

The transition into the more introspective, piano-led closer Hell & Back showing a rare vulnerable side.

The rhythmic interplay between the snapping percussion and Kid Ink's melodic flow on Walk in the Club.
