Grynch Paper Route (feat. Sir Mix\\u2010A\\u2010Lot) from the 2022 self-released album Born in \'86.

Nearly fifteen years after dropping his debut full-length, My Second Wind, Grynch is back with his first solo record since 2014 titled Born in \\u201886. While it may be a solo record, that doesn\\u2019t mean the Seattle-born-and-bred rapper isn\\u2019t still open to sharing the mic. The deeply collaborative artist invited artists like Boom Bap Project, Blake Lewis, Prometheus Brown, and Daz Dillinger to help add color to the nostalgia-hued record.

But there\\u2019s no collaboration more deeply Seattle than our Song of the Day. \\u201cPaper Route\\u201d sees none other than the big-booty-loving Sir Mix a Lot join Grynch for a song that recognizes the resilience it takes to continue on the winding and fickle journey of being a longstanding musician. \\u201cI could never do a thing that I aint about,\\u201d Grynch spits on the chorus, \\u201cSuckers out here running miles /Chasing clout /But when it\\u2019s all said and done and they faded out /I\\u2019m gonna still be getting mine on my paper route.\\u201d
