The rough mix a new Lush One song 'Petty' that is a diss track and has gotten a lot of attention since it dropped afew days ago. Less than 2 hours in the studio but it seems like their was quite a bit of anger channeled into this song.
The song was produced by Ness Lee. An amazing producer/artist from Atlanta who is producing Lush One's album in its entirety.
