Guante rises above his contemporaries no matter want he's getting into that particular day. A couple of years ago when Guante & Big Cats! joined forces I knew it meant trouble for those who had gotten used to being at the top, whatever that means these days. If you're not familiar with Big Cats! production you can get familiar at bigcatsbeats.com. Thanks to The Fine Line for being cool with me recording.
