Machina Muerte frontman, Isaiah Toothtaker and incarcerated rapper, Max B have released a new tape called Toothy Wavy. In perhaps one of the most interesting moves done for an album, Max B recorded all of his verses through the phone at the prison he’s incarcerated in. The low quality prison phone recordings along with Toothtaker’s mixed vocals adds a unique blend to the tape. Download and listen to the six-song tape for free.
