Speaking about the collaboration with Rico, Grandma said, “Work with your heroes whenever you get the chance. Rico and I had a very short introduction before we started working together. Sometimes in writing sessions it can be tough to be vulnerable with someone new (especially when its Rico fucking Nasty) but that wasn't the case during these sessions. the song is about the grind, the little victories and longing for another.
“Stomp and Grind invoked the feeling of wandering through a forest while simultaneously stumbling through a coke-fueled hotel club. We brought in our incredibly talented friend and director miggy to capture this vision.”
Other highlights of the mixtape include Downtown Life, Shallow Water and No Doors. Grandma travels through lo-fi pop, RnB, funk, hip-hop and electronic sounds with ease, proving that no matter what genre he's being inspired by, he can pull it off.
