Many moons ago (over four years now), the young godfather of future beats released Escapism; the first installment of what would become a game-changing selection of projects. Among other genre-defying sonic masterpieces, Sam Gellaitry included one of the biggest bops in trap music history: ‘Long Distance’.

The prodigy has kept his head low the past few months but noted his upcoming album is nearing completion. We’re listening back through his discography in anticipation.
