Stro is back again with a new single as he dropped “Overload” for his # GradeAFridays series from his Cassis G-produced track. The track is said to be a freestyle and the sign of the Mass Appeal Records shared the song on Soundcloud writing, “This week I got an original track for y all, I call this one’ Overload’ it’s produced by the young great Cassius G!! (Good looking at this one G! lol) This beat spoke to me differently and we had one of the worst conversations.
