New Grip Grand! A few gems from the man himself dropped a few days ago. I personally am a huge fan of this steeze from Grip. Here’s some words from the man himself:
Sometimes you have to go back to move forward.
While looking for inspiration recently, I turned to the equipment
and records I used when making my first album,
Welcome to Broakland, back around the turn of the century.
Fans of that album’s low-fi charms should appreciate the result –
these two new songs, which you can download here for free:
“Now I’m Going”
(Lyrics and Music by Grip Grand)
“Enjoy the View”
(Lyrics by Grip Grand/Music: “D o t h e k n x w l e d g e” instrumental taken from the free album “J E S U S” by B l u)

Hit that second link for the lyrics, too. Alright, then.
Already aware that I misquoted the Reading Rainbow theme in my hook,

We did it like that, and now we do it like this. Rapper/producer/blogzilla Grip Grand (URB’s Next 100, XXL Chairman’s Choice, East Bay Express Best Rapper, etc.) presents “Two Pistols,” from the upcoming FREE mixtape, Cassette Trippin’. Our last couple leaks took it back to the classics, so this time we’ll keep it more current with a track from one of today’s most respected producers (Hint: Rhymes with “Adlib”). The result? Hot hot heat. But don’t take my word for it. Listen to “Two Pistols” above, then download it below:
