"LEATHERFACE III" is the new album of Trizz, produced entirely by MIKE SUMMERS. Trizz delivers a dark, cinematic storytelling with a twisted fusion of West Coast gangster rap and horror-inspired soundscapes. MIKE SUMMERS' haunting production, the album feels like a slasher film on wax - raw, eerie and ruthless. Notable features are Brotha Lynch Hung, X-Raided and Twisted Insane.
The album is now available at https://bsr.ffm.to/leatherface3
