So, after a brief hiatus, my weekly Mixtape Mondays are back! — and it’s Wednesday. Well… at least they’re back! The mixtapes were on hold while I was in London, so my first one back is full of tracks about my hometown, Los Angeles. (Or songs that remind me of California in general). However, it kicks off with one of my favorite songs about New York, because I had a brief stop in the Big Apple before heading back to sunny California.
The photo was taken out the window of my plane as we were descending into Los Angeles. (I used Instagram)
As always, click-through for the download from MediaFire. Previous mixtapes can be found here:
