Tracks
Written By Michael Gutierrez

Only one? One’s enough to spoil your Dry January. The Masked One delivers a sizzler with “One Beer,” off the seminal MM..FOOD. And if you’re really bad at those NYT word games, I’ll tell you right now, the album title is an anagram for MF DOOM. You’re welcome. Produced by Madlib. You’re double welcome.
