The Skillionaire returns! Thirstin Howl The 3rd has released a new animated video this morning. “A General” (Remix) features animation by Dios Cartoons and frequent collaborator Big Boo with verse and on the hook. The track is another potent display of lyrical prowess from the Lo-Life General and the original version appeared on the Survival Of The Skillest LP (2015). However, this version was majestically remixed by DJ Heron and is the first leak from the forthcoming Thirstin On Heron album (to drop on Feb 20th).
