Lil Berete & 2KBaby Connect On "Murda"

Regent Park's own Lil Berete unleashed a steady stream of music throughout the year after closing out 2019 with the release of 1 Way Out. He kicked things off with "Ride Or Die" ft. Anders earlier this year and kept his foot on the pedal throughout 2020. 

This week, he returned with a brand new single titled, "Murda" ft 2KBaby. The record, produced by Unimerce, Skeem, and Ethan Frost, finds the rapper reflecting on the harsh realities of the streets.
