Ashoka gained plenty of fans when he released his debut EP Hard To Gain, Easy To Lose in May. The Temple graduate now continues his climb towards greatness with "Don't Go Here," a passionate reflection on the recent wave of police brutality against black citizens in the United States. Only Ashoka's alarmed voice, maintaining a healthy balance between aggression and slick flow, can humanize this grim sonic landscape.

Another promising effort from young Ashoka. Listen to "Don't Go Here" and follow him on SoundCloud here if you like what you hear.

Quotable Lyrics

My sister text my phone like 'watch your back'
No telling how they gon act
They posted right where we play ball around the block
And you know they're Steph Curry with the shot
