Queens get the money, they say, but Meyhem Lauren proves that's just a fact. The East Coast rapper has spent a large portion of the year showcasing his foodie side, be it on Vice's Fuck That's Delicious with his good friend and collaborator, Action Bronson, or his how-to videos on Munchies.
This week, he came through with a brand new project alongside Harry Fraud titled, Glass 2.0. Laced up with 10 tracks in total, Fraud's signature production style is molded perfectly for Meyhem's laid-back, mafioso-esque delivery. Though there's only one feature from Bags, Mayhem explained that the project is a product of the quarantine hustle that he ultimately parallels to food.
"Me and Fraud had a bunch of unfinished music in the stash that was recorded during the time that we made the original Glass project. During quarantine extra spices were added and a new dish was born. To make a long story short sometimes the leftovers taste better than the initial meal," he wrote on Instagram.
Check the project out below.
