From the Tower by A L C Z R ™ #NowPlayingAtGhettoMangaHQ


I first ran across Seattle emcee ALCZR ("AL kuh ZAR") via the Soundcloud algorithm and was immediately blown away by his combination of playful delivery and serious lyricism.  Looks Zar dropped a new joint called From the Tower last month...

This video is dope: "COME OVER" by Jorja Smith (feat. Popcaan)


Maybe you're cooler than me and you've already seen the animated sci-fi action romance musical that serves as visuals for Jorja Smith's song for Come Over and gotten over it.  But I just saw it today for the first time...
