![]() ![]() Somehow, I made it to Miami and the mission was to head straight to the show. After consuming a combination of my goodies, I arrived at the airport feeling like I could float to Florida without the plane. I also snatched a Punch Bar for my flight. On my way out of town, I wanted to make sure I had some official New York pack on me, so I stopped by The Astor Club and grabbed a few 8ths of the Sour Power for me, and a couple Sheist Bubz to gift to The Yutes. I knew that this was my chance to link up with The Yutes and get them really really high. ![]() ![]() While it could be easy to get overwhelmed by all of the events going on during Art Basel, it was a no-brainer to clear my schedule for a night out at SkateBird, who converted their skatepark into a full-blown concert venue featuring performances from none other than The Yutes and stoner rap legend Curren$y-courtesy of Clockwork Music. Needless to say, my mind was blown and they haven’t left my radar since. During my discoveries, I found that they were not only natives of Kingston, Jamaica, but their dad is the iconic dancehall legend Mr Lexx. I had the chance to check all their music out and was captured by their unique way of incorporating their youthful insights and mashing it up with trap and reggae sounds. This was the circumstance for The Yutes, and continuing on their growing momentum, they dropped a single entitled, “Trap Don Dada,” ultimately scoring a deal from Babygrande Records. I’ve had my hand in producing this event over thee years and it’s proven to be a valuable platform for artists to develop and break their careers. These youngsters have been on my radar since they landed a prime slot on a SXSW Takeover showcase in Austin, TX. In fact, this was my opportunity to link with The Yutes, two brothers named Chris and Santris (or Tris) who are making quite a buzz with their music. With that being my objective, my week was destined to be a huge win. ![]()
