New Music: Troy Ave & Maino – “Something Epic”
The Brooklyn artists rap over vintage beats from when New York rap mattered to other people and not just them. It's freshened up by Troy Ave, weighed down by Maino.

It's a strange effort and egocentric but definitely slams the reminder home in 3 plus minutes of East Coast nostalgia. Check the track after the jump.
