“Ridin High” is a collaboration of two producers from the Sole Vibe camp; Keelay and Zaire have constructed an album any true hip-hop head, soul connoisseur or music lover would appreciate. Zai Boogie quotes “Ridin High” simply as, “something to ride to… driving around with our homies listening to good music and appreciating our surroundings… basically a day in the life of the Sole Vibe.” The ability to concoct a well-crafted and calculated masterpiece using two different styles of music is unheard of in today’s sound of hip-hop conformity, and the integrity to respect both is equally remarkable. Zaire elaborates, “With other production albums, there is rarely a concept, “Ridin High” is more than a compilation. All the joints maintain a cohesive vibe that will keep heads consistently entertained.” The artists that ride high with Kee and Zai are stylin’-rap veterans, known for their beastly music abilities- no doubt they vibe with the idea of working with two of the most knowledgeable, versatile and up and coming producers in the game.

Guns and butter. Raw, un-cut soul is to be rolled up and inhaled when cruising to “Ridin High.” Imagine a ‘75 Fleetwood slapping beat, dipping with family and a good buzz on a hot Cali day… what you have is certified riding high instrumusication. From the Gem City to the hottest torta oven west of Salt Lake, the generals of the Sole Vibe production camp have officially done-did it. Zaire says lastly that “Ridin High” is “the ‘official’ introduction of our talents, showing the world that the Sole Vibe family can get down with the big dogs … an opportunity to collab with artists we’ve been listening to since day one, and to give everyone in the crew a chance to collaborate with each other and established artists.”

“Ridin High” features Phonte of Little Brother, Tash of the Alkoholiks, Supastition, Rasco and Planet Asia of Cali Agents, Blu, Nino Moschella, Darien Brockington, Saafir, Emilio Rojas and D-Minor of Wax Reform, Silent Knight, Surreal, Tiffany Paige, Slo-Mo, AV, Mario Dones, Mush Mouf, Evangillest and E.Jenks of The Sole Vibe Family and many more talented artists.
