Fluid Foundation highlight is “Cruzin,” a balmy hybrid of bubbling reggae and classic hip-hop with pop hooks. “I grew up working on cars and spending time around classic cars, so I wanted to write a track that went out to all the ‘Riderz’ and the ‘Lo Los’ who are just cruzin’ and hittin’ switches,” says Rob Eldon.
