DJ Verb over at Ground Lift magazine has a nice review of the Jon Kennedy EP I am featured on. He had this to say: “American MC/DJ Eurok drops easy-going science on “The Cowboy and His Sub,” a stripped-down beat with a nice harmonica snippet that continues the EP’s country-blues theme.” Check it out the review at GroundLiftMag.com
