V Don has the golden ear when it comes to finding talented rappers, especially ones that are going to rap over his production. He’s a solidified producer, there’s no question about that. He’s far from just your average beat maker. This is due to the fact that he can craft anything around how an artist sounds. While adding in his well-defined touch of course. Heather Grey is a six track collaborative EP with Grand Rapids’ rapper Willie The Kid, Rochester-bred Eto, and V Don on the beats.
These three are no strangers to each other. V Don and Eto have a full-length project, Omertà: The Film. While Willie The Kid and the respected producer have two; Blue Notes and Deutsche Marks. Willie and Eto have rhymed together plenty of times too. The trio together is like Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman in 96′. Unstoppable. Production that sounds like it’s straight from the dungeons of rap to the streets of Sicily. A profound integration of sounds accompanied by some of the grittiest bars to drop this year so far. Eto and Willie bounce back and forth off each other in such smooth transitions. Both feeding off each other’s energy and taking the spotlight when their time arises.
