Future Classic: High Klassified “Palindroma”
Kevin “High Klassified” Vincent is exactly what’s right with the current generation of kids out there really getting it: Smart enough to embrace technology at an early age, humble enough to keep it a buck with the people and places that first saw him come up. His Fool’s Gold debut …
