Hiero crew’s lyrical hitman, Casual, returns “Rockin Lo Vintage.” New single (b/w “I’m From Oakland”) was produced by West Coast legend DJ Daryl (Producing Tupac’s “Keep Ya Head Up” as well as for Snoop Dogg, Richie Rich, and many more).
Propelled by a thick, burbling synth bass, the single is sonically classic Bay meshed with Casual’s lifelong passion for Polo wear. Speaking on Lo, he said, “When I got my first record deal with Jive in 1993, we had the label advance me $1000 before the funds cleared so I could go to Ralph Lauren. It was a part of Hiero’s everyday wardrobe. In fact if you saw Kanye West’s MTV live performance, he mentioned that the way Souls of Mischief dressed in the 1990s inspired him. That look was Ralph Lauren Polo. Now with Polo showing love to historic Black communities including Morehouse College, Spelman College and Oak Bluffs in their line, I’m showing the love back.”
The single is B/W another DJ Daryl collaboration “I’m From Oakland” which spits much game on Casual (and Hieroglyphics) home turf. Both tracks are available digitally now.
