Huntsville, Alabama visionaries G-SIDE have combined homegrown, smoothed out fare with an uncanny knack for reinvention on their new LP, Island. Press appreciation has been coming in from all sides, with the FADER praising, “what’s happening here is the perfect fever dream on a top-down drive to Waffle House,”Consequence of Sound commending their “forward-thinking rap with an eye on the rear-view mirror,”Stereogum raving over its “zoned-out polyglot music tapestry,” and Pitchfork’s infatuation with tracks that contain the “beyond dusted moan of synths and rattling percussion…a cruel vision of the world as a place where you hunt or become the hunted.” YP, raised in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood, recently received co-signs from Q-TIP and RAEKWON and his list of influences reads like a who's who of New York legends. HisStill Awake has been called “one of my favorite Chicago joints to drop all year,” by the fellas in the know at Crowd Noize, expect one heck of a party here tonight.
