Jack Splash is a renaissance man, fronting award winning projects (PlantLife and The Heart Attack) and producing countless others (from Alicia Keys to Missy Elliot). Most impressively, though, is the range of mastery he demonstrates over these many different styles. In the lead-up to his summer debut solo release, Technology and Love Might Save Us All, he has been releasing mixtapes flexing his ability to produce and perform. The track “It’s Not the Same” from King of the Beats Volume 1 shows Splash kickin’ it old school with early 90s electro/g-funk SoCal beats and providing the hip-hop storytelling of the OG lifestyle to back it up.

What’s the release date?
Not sure – I think it’s coming sometime late Spring. He supposedly has another mixtape dropping before then too – I’ve got my fingers crossed that he makes more tracks like this one! You can’t beat early 90s West Coast rap ha.
