Sometimes when you achieve something you thought was impossible, it makes you feel you can do anything...even swim up a waterfall like Link does with the Zora armor.

I hope not. But as the episodes pile up, it's becoming increasingly hard to keep up with my costs for broadcasting. Right now I'm dangerously low on space so I can't upload another episode :(

K's busy doing what he loves best- chopping & slicing samples to create beats; And this month's "samurai showdown" features K vs. the iconic Fallout 4 theme composed by Inon Zur...
