Music lovers from all across the globe showed Elzhi lots of love when he dropped his sublime Elmatic LP last year and now the former Slum Village MC is gonna show some love back. Hitting over 12 countries on an extensive tour this summer, the acclaimed wordsmith will be putting in some work to reap what he sowed with releasing a well-crafted LP free of charge. El also announced that he will be releasing a new record later this year, tentatively scheduled for an Autumn release at the moment.
