XLR8R sits in as Anticon’s Doseone teaches his weekly freestyle class to budding Oakland MCs aged 12-18 with some help from Jel. This is very inspiring.
Doseone and Jel are Themselves and have an album out this month on Anticon called CrownsDown. A free mixtape is available here and features tunes from the album.
They play Whelan’s this Friday with Jogging. €13 in.
