Flying To The Top: A 100% Tokai Hip-Hop EP
Flying To The Top is a tribute to Tokai hip-hop, exclusively involving artists, producers, and creatives from this region. Featuring performances by C.O.S.A. and MaRI, and production by names such as DJ RYOW, SPACE DUST CLUB, DJ DOPEMAN, RIMAZI, and Tee, this EP embodies the quintessence of Tokai’s regional hip-hop. The artwork, signed by DJ NONKEY, perfectly complements the album’s sound aesthetic. As ¥ellow Bucks explains, Flying To The Top stands out for its diversity. The EP offers six new songs, each providing a different variety, plus a new version of the hit “Bussin’“, in collaboration with MaRI and C.O.S.A.
