In the description for his new project ‘Safe Travels‘ Chicago producer Glassic states “there’s a lot of talent in local and underground musicians that doesn’t get enough appreciation”. This idea is perfectly represented in album standout cut “means” featuring local staple Will is Chillin. The Stankface records MC laces a fantastic double time flow that sits in the pocket perfectly. The kick pattern has an undeniable swing to it and the fast paced hi hat accompanies Will as he breezes through rhythms.

Whether or not Glassic or Will is Chillin are getting attention on a national level, it is clear that they are producing music at a professional level. It’s only a matter of time before the music hits a wider audience. Until then Midwesterners can appreciate the hidden jewels that they have.
