On Repeat: Rolling Stones, After Hours, Rockwell
Toronto’s own hip-hop trio, Inner City Grooves, has released its official mixtape Get Well Soon, and it’s definitely one you’ll wanna check out. The group, consisting of Hector, Dannystarr Beats and Yobikenobi, has dropped 21 feel-good tracks, bringing an old-school funk back to hip-hop with their unique sound. All three members produced beats for the tape as Hector spits over them with a casual sophistication. Dannystarr adds extra vocals on tracks “Where You Are” and “Parle”. The mixtape is packed with featured Toronto artists such as J-Maroon, T.City, Staxx Young and Junia-T. The wavy track “High Beams” featuring T.City and Staxx Young is produced by Hector, and samples Drake’s “Over”, while the “Hypnotize”-inspired “Cleavage” featuring MK will have listeners bobbing their heads. Overall, Get Well Soon is a great freshman mixtape for Inner City Grooves, showing the group’s variety and unique sound.
