Rap fans everywhere should be thankful that mikelikesrap decided to link with tony_seltzer. Whether trying to avoid being pigeonholed as a cerebral lo-fi artist or just wanting to make some bangers, the results are consistently excellent. ⁠ ⁠ Pinball II, released today, moves even further outside of the realm of headphone music.
