After performing as MICROPHONE PAGER with Twigy—who commands a devoted following—rapper P.H., now popular as a solo artist for his understated, burnished style, delivers the classic track “P.H.” While both artists are fixtures in the hip-hop scene, this work takes a slightly unorthodox approach to hip-hop, featuring a track that hints at dancehall elements throughout.
Their flows are exceptionally distinctive, so if you’re into unconventional hip-hop, this is a must-check.
