Peace, peace Sober Soldiers. How do know that this one is for the books? Well it’s with The Big Hash and it’s been a long time coming. We’ve watched Hash come up in the game, and growing with every project and persevering through many challenges to still feed his fanbase. We went through a lot of parts of Hash’s journey, his new album and label, and even hashed out our own misunderstanding. Press play and enjoy.
