Florida Boy - A Profile on 454: Interview and Live Performance

Back in January, we brought 454/Squills to Gainesville, Florida for a Dion Dia Show - Right before he embarked on a national tour with Aminé, Cochise, and AJ Tracey. Our very own FARO sat down with the innovative, NY-via-Orlando artist to get to know him a bit better. We combined 454's interview with his live performance and the end result was this profile: Florida Boy.
