Last year, he released his Henry Church album towards the end of August. Today, he follows up that project with his latest EP, The Plastics.
Joseph Chilliams is back with his latest project, The Plastics. The four track EP features the previously released songs, "Unfriendly Black Hotties" and "Karen's Son." It's a short project but Chilliams showcases his musical progress since Henry Church on this one. He links up with Saba, Sen Morimoto, Mama Yaya and KAINA for the project. It's a short listen but within the time, Chilliams brings you into his world with hilarious bars and captivating production.
