[kyte.tv appKey=MarbachViewerEmbedded&uri=channels/449330/1699461&tbid=322951&p=5296&height=325&width=540] After making a mint with his custom snapbacks, fashion designer 40oz Van made his radio debut on Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club. He spoke on his popular Tumblr page and entrepreneurial acumen. In 12 hours, he says he pocketed over $70,000 from his latest limited release. Hustla—bad muthafucka.
Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
