HipHopDX Exclusive Premiere: On the heels of his latest single release “Grime Date,” Tona makes a return with its accompanying single “Red Eye.” The single, which will appear on his forthcoming album The Ivy League, is produced by Slakah Da Beatchild who has worked with the likes of, Drake, Glen Lewis, and Kardinal Offishall. The song also features Toronto native Fixaveli, who has been making a name for himself as of late.

“The song came out of a freestyle that was inspired by some ‘Two Oceans’ red wine,” Tona explains. “Everybody had left the studio thinking nothing of it, but a few months later, a vocalist who had been present during the session came back reciting the freestyle like it was a full blown song she had heard on the radio. I couldn’t ignore the signs at this point, and decided to actually turn it into a song.”
