On November 21 at 8 p.m., The Hip-Hop Soundtrack Series goes down at (le) poisson rouge in New York City, which is located on 158 Bleeker St. The concept behind the event is to tell stories about the songs that have impacted the lives of various people in the music industry.

Fresh off the success of 93 Still, the exclusive remix album of Souls of Mischief's 93 'Til Infinity, Gummy Soul's Wally Clark is back with his 2nd solo release, and is BandCamp's featured artist.
