Dillon Ate That . . .


Dillon Ate . . . with Batsauce, Lady Daisey, Everet James, & Stacy Epps

Lab Up & Grub Down

It was all peace when we got blessed by a visit from good friends and homies in music, Stacy Epps and Everet James. Stacy and I go back for a minute, (*hint hint she can be heard on my forthcoming album w/ Paten Locke, “Studies in Hunger,” on Domination Recordings) and tonite she fell through to record a part of my project with Batsauce. Needless to say, Chef 4 Burners catered the studio session lovely.
