My homie TAIS just dropped his new project just in time for #SXSW on what he deemed as Too Complex Tuesday. Mixed by the one and only, The Whooligan. I just copped it it from his band­camp. It's name your own price but, why not sup­port dope indie artists with a lil cash. They gotta eat too. Also, if you're going to SXSW, be on the look­out for TAIS rockin' a few dif­fer­ent shows. Peace.

The city will be elec­tri­fied with the lat­est and great­est new artists, and this year the crew at Audible Treats are excited to be pre­sent­ing their first inau­gural SXSW show­case. That said, in addi­tion to our show­case, there are a num­ber of other great hip-hop shows going on through­out the week fea­tur­ing a bevy of Audible Treats' artists. Take note below and be sure to mark these in your cal­en­dar. Hope to see you in Austin.
