In the shadows of the scene, Dom Kennedy has stepped back out and released some new music in collabs with Hit-Boy.
It’s been 12 years since the release of Dom Kennedy’s debut mixtape 25th Hour and he’s been apart of the underground music scene ever since. Dropping off projects such as From The Westside With Love, Yellow Album, Get Home Safely, and much more. The West Coast-bred rapper has helped pave the way. And open opportunities for many independent/ underground artists to follow suit and set foundations for themselves and their trademarks.
