It's my pleasure to not only give you the final leak from my good friend Cook Classics' new album Recharged, but to introduce you to an incredible new artist by the name of Avriel. Born and raised in LA, Avriel's music is a kinetic mix of pop, R&B, soul, rock and electronica, delivered with a sexy, original style all her own. Here's "Bouncer," a record from Cook's new album - check it out and look for more new music from Avriel soon!

COOK CLASSICS - (PRE)CHARGED MIXTAPE mixed by INKA ONE

The homie Cook Classics dropped this to get us ready for his forthcoming project.  Check out what he had to say below:

(Pre)Charged is the prelude to my first official release, "Recharged".  It's a collection of fifteen instrumentals, mixed by Inka One, that touch on a few elements of my production and style.  It's definitely something to vibe to and hopefully inspire other producers and artists.  There are also five bonus tracks, which include a remix to the smooth Pac Div banger On/Off Switch ft. Dom Kennedy, and the instrumental versions of Def 82 (ft. Tiron and Ayomari), On/Off Switch (ft. Pac Div and Dom Kennedy), What I Know (ft. Outasight), and an extended version of the Recharged Intro.
