In a press release put out by TDE, the label's president Dave Free revealed that he has high hopes for Skiiiwalker's future success. "Lance Skiiiwalker is going to be such a breakthrough artist for this generation," Free wrote. "He challenges the traditional format of today's music, adding another layer to TDE's unique roster."
For those that don't know, Skiiiwalker has already been linked to a number of TDE artists already. He actually made three different appearances as a guest on Jay Rock's last album 90059, including on the title track, "Telegram," and "Money Trees Deuce." He was also featured on Kendrick Lamar's last album untitled.unmastered, showing up on the song "Untitled 4." Currently, he's in the midst of working on his own debut record, tentatively titled Introverted Intuition.
