Mike Red recently dropped his album “#Smoke&Soul” which is being hailed as “one of Houston’s ‘Top Ten Mixtapes’ for the Summer of 2013” inside of the Houston Press.
The music video is entitled “Jamming Screw”, which is an ode to the vintage lifestyle that made Houston the part of music that it is today. The track was also produced by Mike Red. - LeftOverCake.com
Meet your sneaky but good album of the year so far. Mike Red doesn't get nearly enough credit for scoring some pretty great Houston rap, but when he chooses to step inside of his own skin, we get Smoke & Soul -- a careful, manicured release where every horn, drum and other points of jazzy instrumentation shine through. Hell, Ray Lewis opens up the album. Ray "No Weapon" Lewis. - Houston Press
There’s something to be said about a rapper who also produces his own beats. I feel the effort shouldn’t be overlooked. Houston bred Rapper / Producer Mike Red released his much anticipated album, “Smoke & Soul.” Grab your vice of choice, press play, and enjoy - FlywiditCustoms at GreedMont Park.com

Houston-based producer/artist Mike Red releases the official video for his new single, "Jammin Screw", which he also produced. I always appreciate a track dedicated to one the cultures I respect most, Houston hip hop. - Tasha Shebloggin.com
"It hits with cooing vocals on “And It’s Going Like” with RoyalT and Young, spaces out on the rolling snares and chaos of squeaking shoes on “Running” and for inspiration sake has Ray Lewis delivering another hymnal about achieving the most while being given the absolute least." - Brandoc of DayandaDream.com
