Is there anyone more on-brand than Smiley? For the last year, the rapper’s been unable to wipe the smile off his face. And for good reason.

Ottawa artists Lindasson and TwoTiime have linked up for a remix of “Eighties”. Originally released by Lindasson in 2020, “Eighties” is a melodic track that calls back to old-school styles. The flair of TwoTiime’s verse brings the remix to a whole new level. The differing tones of the pair’s vocals add texture and depth, elevating […]
