It’s a West Coast affair as Lashaun Ellis and A$ton Matthews connect on the ruthless “Get Em.” Produced by Khompono, the menacing single finds the two rising rappers unleashing potent lyrics over an innovative trap backing.  “Get Em” will live on Ellis’ upcoming debut album Never Home, entirely produced by Khomopono. It will be available in March via J6Recordings. As for Matthews, he will be hitting the road soon for Joey Fatts‘ Ill Street Blues Tour.

Take a listen to “Get Em” below.

Earlier this week Sir Michael Rocks stopped by to kick it with DJ Tony Touch for the latest edition of Toca Tuesdays. The newest Jet Life member certainly does his thing over J.R. Writer‘s “Get Em,” but you’ve got to love when the DJ dusts off a joint like this. The appearance definitely included a plug for the Illinois-bred emcee’s latest project, Lap of Lux, but a smooth freestyle fixes all gripes. Be sure to check out the video below, and if you like what you see Lap of Lux is out now.
