After taking taking some time off for health reasons, Canadian producer Tommy Kruise is back with a previously unreleased mix, ahead of his first European shows and forthcoming project Memphis Confidential Vol. II. According to an Instagram post, it was originally made for OVO Sound Radio two months ago, but "THEY NEVER AIRED IT CUZ IT WASNT INDUSTRY ENUFF."There appears to be no hard feelings towards Drake's camp though, and the Montreal native's mix is 45 minutes of expertly selected (and refreshingly less mainstream) rap, with artists including Beatking, Jeremih, Kamiyah, Kodak Black, Young Thug, and more.He also throws in a handful of slowed down edits, remixes (closing with an unexpected rework of Quebec singer-songwriter Coeur de Pirate's "Carry On"), and new original material, which Kruise has hinted is from the upcoming sequel to his 2012 Southern hip-hop-influenced mixtape, Memphis Confidential Vol. 1.Listen to the mix below and check out the full tracklist here.Max Mertens is on Twitter.
