If you're from New England and haven't heard of Mike Stud, that's a darn shame. Born and breed right in Rhode Island, he was a well known ball player before he was rappin up a storm under NUE Agency.

He's been doing shows around the U.S. for a while and is about to begin his first official national tour. Catch him up at Port City Music Hall in Portland, Maine tonight for only $15 before he heads out. Others have deemed him the next Asher Rother, agree or disagree?

Either way, he looks like a good time. Dowload this track and the rest of his album for free from Swag $old Separately or if you're like me and are cool with giving your favorite artists some money, you're more than welcome to buy it on iTunes!

Opening at the show will be Jus. Co, another local guy from Derry, NH who's been on tracks with Mike Stud and does some pretty sweet Drake remixes.

See you guys at the show! Can't make it? Check back for an interview with Mike Stud!
