U-Know’s first (!) full album is scheduled for early next month, but prior to that he’s dropped pre-release Body Language to offer a hint of what we might be in for.

I ended up loving TWS’s hip-hop pre-release Head Shoulders Knees Toes, but understand that it was too much, too soon for many fans. Title…
