The Uncuffed My Mixtape is a selection of our producers' favorite songs. This week, we hear from two Uncuffed producers who recently returned home from Solano and San Quentin. Anthony Ivy talks about "Locked Up," by Lil Durk, and Timothy Hicks shares some thoughts on "Grinding all My Life," by Nipsey Hussle.
It's like a lot of people are locked up, but it's like maybe even more people that that's out there dead. So it's like a blessing and it's a curse, you know. I am still here, so I could be thankful for that, and I'm thankful for my family for having my back through this time ... being locked up, having that support system.Anthony Ivy
