Highlife is kind of like the Jim Jones or Birdman of the Brainiac Society, but cooler, and more mellow. His disposition sits between those dudes and The Dude. A founding member of the crew, Highlife was seen more in the background than on the mic. And just like Jones or Birdman, the transition is working. He comes through on Friday ready for the weekend, with "Open Liquor", his 2nd joint featuring Naledge. Grab it after the jump. Highlife: "Open Liquor" (Feat. Naledge)

Here his partner in crime Naledge Born lends a helping hand on "Open Liquor." It's open container life 'round here. No word on when Dre's project is set to drop, but from the looks of things, it's coming sooner than later. Open Liquor (ft. Naledge) HighLife f/ Naledge - Open Liquor
