My best friend, Sean, has been working on his mixtape The Upgrade all summer. It’s done and is out! I can confidently say, without any bias whatsoever, that it is amazing. He has taken his lyrical and recording skills to the next level. What makes this release even more impressive is the fact that he recorded and produced the entire mixtape without ever stepping foot in a studio. In fact, most of the recording tools he used were mere demos. Sean truly put poured his blood, sweat and tears into this tape. It is most definitely a homemade luxury. Be sure to download and enjoy.
