After leaving fans feening for more with her “Alpaca Fur” and “Planet of the BAPE” leaks, Leimert Park local, Raven Sorvino releases the Lifestyle EP. Keeping true to EP style, the project is only 7 tracks and produced entirely by Aktive. It’s also a relatively pure project, boasting only 3 features from other underground artists, such as Johnny Phrank, Smokey Lane and Doley Bernays.

Aside from the hard hitting production courtesy of Aktive, Raven Sorvino proves why she has the underground buzzing, with witty and creative bars such as, “I don’t f*ck with y’all turkeys. I ain’t looking like no Pilgrim.” Catch the stream below.
