Hugh Augustine

Expensive Taste

Brandon Backhaus | July 3, 2015

I've never met of Hugh Augustine. At least if I did see him "Still Standing on LaBrea," I didn't know it was him. But I feel like I've heard him before.

Hugh Augustine has a new video out called, "Expensive Taste," and I'm feeling baller as fuck today.

In it, his accent, cadence, attitude, they all seem so prototypically Los Angeles, that it's hard not to feel like we've dapped it up outside the Airliner at least once. Maybe substitute Airliner with Kaos Network and I might be more correct. Maybe. (If you're not from LA or a degenerate rapper and have no idea what I'm talking, come visit, fucker!)

But I feel like I've at the very least stood in an dark alley outside somewhere doing something your wife would get mad at your for in the general proximity of Mr. Augustine.

Hugh Augustine has a new record, Massimo Ciabatta, distributed by The Order Label, hip-hop distribution arm of seminal, Low End Theory-related, Alpha Pup Records. I may or may not already have my hands on it. Stay standing on LaBrea. I'll be back. I promise.
