206UP.COM wishes the best of luck to Rainier Beach homie J. Pinder as he pursues even brighter lights and bigger stages in the ATL. Pinder leaving town was a damn shame, not only because his was a unique and talented voice in the Seattle rap community, but because he seems to be just hitting his stride as an artist. The Code Red EP had a professional sheen that made it stand out from most other albums in the local crowd.
Even these four unreleased joints sound like an artist destined for fans far beyond the Puget Sound waters. Listen (that’s right — 206UP.COM is finally streaming tracks for your immediate listening pleasure!) and download for free over at freshndef.com.
