Paperchase Feat. Bobby V, Pinney Woods, Directed By Ginorocks Produced By Aktual

The south has churned out more than its fair share of memorable rappers but few have emerged with a flavor that is as stylistically unique as that of Pinney Woods. Pinney Woods takes its name from the Chattanooga neighborhood where the duo, which once comprised Sutta Kane and Brikk – cut their teeth on the music of hip-hop’s finest.
