New Jersey/Philadelphia-based producer & rapper Ryan Stone releases his new instrumental hip-hop album, “XXI.”

Standing out as more than just a beat tape, “XXI” follows a concept and harkens a deeper meaning through instrumentals. Introspection, love, and life find their home on many of the tracks on this project.

“XXI” depicts an instrumental narrative of the main character going for a late night drive on his 21st birthday. Through highs and lows, twists and turns, listeners weave through thumping drums, soulful samples, and jazzy accents. Go for the ride by streaming and downloading “XXI” for free via Ryan Stone’s Soundcloud and Bandcamp.
