We cooked a 2 disc project on some Speakerboxxx/The Love Below type shit because I wanted to create something that would explore and show the duality of my character as a Mexican-American artist. I wanted to challenge myself and craft something timeless, one of those projects that lives with you forever.

Side A, Frames.mx, is more introspective and on some rap shit, conscious what foo’s might call it. Whereas La Colonia, is more upbeat, fun and carefree, heavily influenced by my Mexican roots, which is different from what we usually make but it’s just fire to me. It helped me get out of my head as an overthinker and just enjoy, live, and have fun with it. It’s music from the culture that we’d always listen to growing up and a feeling that I wanted to relive.

Me and my homeboy Ben didn’t really shoot to create something like it, it just naturally came out in one of our sessions and we kept rockin with it. Two man band type shit. I always fuck around and tell him we’re like the White Stripes, pero con color.

I appreciate ya’ll that are tuning in and looking forward to the project. I can’t wait for ya’ll to hear frames.mx /la colonia in it’s entirety.

Truly, my best work yet.
