Maajins on 'Antisocial,' Tana, Nick Mira, Yeat, upcoming EP, producer tape & More!

#OurGenerationMusic #Maajins #OGM If you were tasked with choosing one song that encapsulates the youthful hip-hop underground that's been elevating in the last couple years, one of the top candidates would have to be Tana and Slump6s' "Antisocial" — remixed as "Antisocial 2" months later including SSGKobe, Yung Fazo and Xhulooo. With its mosh-pit inducing rage beat being one of the standout features of the track, the producer of "Antisocial" is just as important to this new wave scene as this magnum opus track is. Along with "Antisocial," which he promises will earn a Gold plaque in the near future, Maajins has been able to work with other fixtures in the blossoming rage and plugg scenes like Yeat, Autumn!, Rich Amiri, DC The Don and more. Sometimes, even he can't believe how quickly he got to this point. “It’s kind of surreal for me bro," he said. "When I was young I always definitely knew I would have a career and passion in music and artistry, but I didn’t think it would be this soon. It’s a good experience in total.” Looking ahead, Maajins has a producer album in the works, which will see him recruit some of the underground's best to hop on his beats. This compilation tape will be fully produced by himself, as he hopes to use this project to flex his metaphorical muscles. “I want to accomplish getting sh*t done by myself," he said. "I’m probably gonna executive produce it solely me, no collabs, no nothing. Straight solo, raw shit. I’m just proving a point that I can get sh*t done.” Be sure to LIKE, COMMENT & SUBSCRIBE! 🔰 FULL STORY 💻: https://ourgenerationmusic.com/exclus...
