Over the years, the city of Los Angeles has introduced us to a slew of remarkable artist, from the late great Eazy E to Compton’s current “King Kunta” Kendrick Lamar. Although LA has always been the Mecca of southern California music, acts a few miles away from the big city have been making their mark in the game, with the emergence of Long Beach spitter Vince Staples, Inland Empire super producer Hit-Boy, rap duel Audio Push, and many more.
This week we introduce you to another non traditional SoCal artist. Making his debut to the OnSMASH screen, meet Runway, up-and-coming Orange County California-based singer/rapper gearing up to drop his debut solo project Something To Be Understood(STBU). The OC native sticks to the new sound wave of implementing dope melodies, dropping off his first official single “City Jumpin” with some help from Portland, Oregon producer King Yosef.
