After riding a wave in 2018 with two projects which include the popular project Heatwave 2, the rising New York recording artist, Suave The Don, returned from hiatus with an even more polished sound with the release of the video to the new hit song, "Stories Of The Hood." Using his signature East Coast style and in the moment appeal, The Don enlists the direction of Jack Trvdes & Haddawi over the Twan production and finds him detailing how too often friends become foes.

The song was inspired by the streets consistently retelling the usual story of friends becoming enemies in a matter of time. Suave states: "Beefing with the same kids you grew up with is the story of every hood."

"Stories of the Hood" follows Suave's 2019 Matter of Grind album which spawned "Understand Me" and "SLumped Anthem." Originally bursting onto the scene in 20115 and made his run in 2017 with a string of buzzing tracks, like "Like That," "Heat," "Live From The 5" and "I Think I Might," Suave The Don is best known for his breakthrough album called Know the Vibes. Suave's latest release is the lead to his anticipated new album coming mid-2021.
