What’s goin on everyone?! Today, I’d like to introduce you all to an artist from Los Angeles, CA who goes by the name Mani Coolin’. His music is laid back, and he carries a real hypnotic flow and vocal sound. Mani’s rhymes are relatable, yet they trip out your knowledge, and make you see and sense things in a new way.
