Tef Poe previews the upcoming TSS-backed Money Never Sleeps with “Michael Jordan Mode.” Tef taps into the MJ psyche, willing to destroy the opposition on his way up the mountain no matter the cost. Victims include women and children, Mystikal and Aaliyah fans. As usual Tef relies on his Space Jam wordplay, referencing everything from Vess Soda to Reading Rainbow. His raw intensity on the mic is well complemented by production’s eerie keys.
With Vandalyzm’s mixtape dropping on Monday, St. Louis looks to be starting its own Midwest dynasty.
