My thoughts last night on “The Yellow Tape”… 

This duo from Las Vegas is new to me – like I’m still mentally unwrapping the clear plastic off their sounds. Steelo El and Rawlo Black are known as THE ONES and believe me they stay true to their name. I am still  listening (with pleasure and several SoundCloud “rewinds”) to their latest project entitled “The Yellow Tape”. From the gate, Steelo El grabbed me with his wordplay in the beginning of their gritty sociopolitical track “In These Eyes”. The chemistry with his partner in rhyme Rawlo Black, the well developed tracks and lyrical execution on TYT, brands their sounds as a cool listening experience for any hip hop head! The upbeat “Lash Out” and the aforementioned track are my favorite selections so far. TGSofHH will be looking forward to more projects from THE ONES in the future. Take a listen and enjoy!
