Royal blue mesh with a grey bladder and orange hits, these are perfect for those Denver Bronco fans, who prefer the Royal/Orange colors of old.

UK producer Imperial and Sareem Poems (LA Symphony) are gearing up to release an EP together in 2014, which will be released on Illect Recordings.

It only made since that once they decided to work together the track would get a reboot. Sareem also celebrated the birth of his first child in the past year also. A picture he eloquently paints with the verse, “I want to be the earthly father I didn’t believe in.”
