After shedding his former pseudonym of A La $ole, Pro Era member Aaron Rose dropped a number of noteworthy singles and killed every guest feature. But with the release of his new EP, ‘Elixir,’ the Brooklyn rapper has never sounded more focused or motivated, and it’s only a taste of what’s to come from the young artist. His tenacity becomes clear as soon as opener “The Root of Sole” hits your ear with its mad-scientist samples and production from J57 (he produced five of the EP’s seven tracks). Amidst the variety in sounds, and guest features from the likes of Domo Genesis and Dirty Sanchez, the project remains distinctly the work of its host emcee. 'Elixir’ is now available via Coalmine Records through all major digital retailers and can be streamed right here, courtesy of Audiomack
