X.O. told me that if the world didn’t come to an end a few days ago, then he would give us a dope hip-hop track to party to over the holidays. Well, X doesn’t disappoint with his latest visual offering from the Check Please Vol. 3 hit ‘Get Live’ by representing the west coast laid-back party vibe that we can all relate to. X also let me know that he has been working relentlessly on TWO solo projects, as well as a collaborative venture with our friend and fellow Star Rock affiliate Kidd Upstairs. We’re excited about this next announcement; X.O will be dropping the Mr. Porfavorian EP exclusively on TSS on 1.4.13. I’ve been in the studio with him and had the chance to listen to a couple snippets. Trust me, it’s well the worth the wait.

After a brief hiatus, the homie X.O. is back with a new track titled ‘Something For The Summer’, produced by DJ Premier. Before you peep the track below, here are some words from X.O. himself:
I’m releasing this song at the end of Summer. To me, Summer doesn’t represent a season, it represents a state of mind; where everything is all good and you can live care free…which should be every day of your life.
