Most of us in the West Coast bass music scene know Soothslayer for her teeth-kicking sets at Insomniac events, Respect or other D&B events around SoCal, either solo or with mixing partner Nightstalker.

Earl Sweatshirt Joins Drakeo The Ruler & 03 Greedo On “Ion Rap Beef” Remix

Slick tongued with a laid-back bravado, Earl kicks off his verse by calling out the D.A and calling for Drakeo’s freedom before dropping braggadocious bars. The song was initially teased on Drakeo’s Instagram page in early March but it has since been deleted. Earl’s also expressed his support for Drakeo on Twitter in the past. Continue reading
