Stik Figa & Heather Grey – No Secrets (feat. Asher Roth)

Stik Figa and Heather Grey are both work in the understated end of hip-hop, where craft matters more than flash. “No Secrets”, out on Mello Music Group, pulls in Asher Roth, and the three-way combination sits in that classic Mello pocket: deliberate, clean, nothing wasted.

Without more source material to go on, I’ll say what I hear: it’s a track that trusts the listener. That restraint is what put it on my list for Week 12.
