Nate Gramz continues to give us a smooth flow in his latest single “Elegance” It gives you a sit back in the cut vibe reminiscent of the 70’s where folks wore fly clothes not just white tees, jeans and sneakers. He gives us a lil more variety in this one as it’s not high octane but it still hits in the right places.
