I hit up my homie Dan to roll out to the event and take photos. Good thing I did because this was an event that shouldn’t have been missed.

First off, if you don’t follow HouseShoes on Twitter, you’re sleeping. Now to the music. Marv Won’s Way Of The Won hits hard.  The first track, Rite Back, had me hooked. What Up came on and that’s when the volume got cranked up.  I can’t talk about each track here, but i’m telling you, I haven’t skipped a track yet.  From the banging beats to the storytelling style flows, you’ll see why this is in B+C’s heavy rotation.  Download Marv Won – The Way Of The Won here. BIG thanks HouseShoes for the heads up.
