Tufawon makes it in Gimme Noise Beat Tape May

Tufawon has been quite busy as of late. This is the second time this week he made it into the City Pages. Check out one of his instrumental tracks he produced on the City Pages' Eight Twin Cities hip-hop producers you should hear now: Vol. 5

Mavin MC of Illuminous 3 rebranded himself as Tufawon for last year's Schwag, which he also produced in full, showcasing his skills on the mic and behind the boards. Combining a boom-bap sensibility with synth-based trap leanings, a Tufawon beat maintains his MC persona's grittiness but branches out into numerous directions from there. He's in the midst of a number of new projects, from a full-length Tufawon album to a collaborative effort with the USA Cuba Artist Exchange, which will expand on the sound he's shown off so far.
