Here at The Hot Six, we love the international beats, sounds, rhythms, and flavors. This track has an uncategorizable hook to it, but it has shades of Middle Eastern and something exotic. In the immortal words of Borat, “I liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike!” You liiiiiiiike? R3hab is part of the Dirty Dutch crew and is another Dutch DJ [...]
