Lil Skies had a hell of a run throughout 2018 and he shows no indication of slowing down any time soon. The rapper's delivered a whole lot of loose singles following the release of his project, Life Of A Dark Rose. Since then, he's collaborated alongside Rich The Kid, Yung Pinch and more. Today, he comes through with his latest track, "Name In The Sand."

Lil Skies is back with his latest song, "Name In The Sand." His latest effort is probably one of his most personal songs to date. Skies opens up like never before on "Name In The Sand." Skies flexes his melodic side for the majority of the song over the guitar-centric production. However, towards the end of the song he does come through with some bars.

Skies is getting ready to embark on the biggest tour of his career thusfar. He, alongside OT Genasis, will serve as the openers for Wiz Khalifa and Rae Sremmurd co-headlining "Dazed And Blazed" tour. The tour kicks off in Detroit on July 21st and concludes Phoenix, AZ on August 30th. They'll also be making stops in Toronto, Chicago, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas and more. Check out the full list of dates here and keep your eyes peeled for more updates on Lil Skies. 

Quotable Lyrics
I ain't tryna preach too much, I'm tryna let you know
I would give the world to you, if you would let us grow
Good vibes, good times, everywhere we go
Turn the music up, she here me on the radio
