Did you hear that local hip-hop duo Kung Foo Grip released their magnum opus 2KFG earlier this year? While fraternal twin brothers Eff is H and Greg Cypher have been releasing a steady stream of quality material for over half a decade, the contribution of producer Keyboard Kid has taken them to a new level. Most known for being Lil B aka the Based God's main producer, Kid helps the duo paint a mosaic of textures and styles throughout the album. "Don't Go Missing" is one of the more subtle, laid-back tracks on the album, dipping almost into R&B territory if it wasn't for the stirring trap beat. KFG are known for putting on amazing shows so don't miss their set at Upstream Music Fest + Summit this year June 1-3 in Pioneer Square.
