    53 - Jordan Miles - Hip$ta New Mexico Musician, rapper and entrepreneur
    53 - Hip$ta is the epitome of a New Mexican and at that a New Mexican musician. A dyed in the wool rapper, which I personally have seen this man onstage spitting that bar saavy goodness, at parties battle rapping and also his recorded works which are lengthy and lyrically deep.

We delve into all things music, we play the debut of Hip$ta’s banger Red Zia Symbol in the podcast.
