First things first, the title of El Prez’ new mixtape/album/mixalbum, “Animal Style!” isn’t about beastiality (deep sigh of relief). It’s a reference to In-N-Out, and refers to a special way they prepare the burger and fries that only the locals and savvy customers even knew existed, on a “secret” menu.

The always fresh L.A. emcee El Prez is preparing to drop his new album “Animal Style” on February 15, and in preparation he’s letting loose of a steady stream of the album’s top tracks, starting with the jazzy “Victory Lapse”. Produced by The A3 and featuring rhyme appearances from Donwill and Von Pea of Tanya Morgan fame, if “Animal Style” is anywhere as dope as “Victory Lapse” we’re in store for one hell of a musical meal next week.
