Many of the most successful rap acts have been partnerships \u2013 unions between vocalists who complement each other effortlessly, and who enhance the talents of their partner. PM is a project like that, and once you hear &#8216;Touch It&#8217;, and &#8216;Get It&#8217;, we think you&#8217;ll agree that the bond between Phi and Meisha is a powerful one indeed. If these two rappers are uncommonly frank, raw, and uncompromising, there&#8217;s a good reason for their confidence and their swagger. They know they&#8217;ve got each other&#8217;s backs.<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So it&#8217;s always been for Phi and Meisha, beginning with their childhood days together in Columbus, Ohio. They were buddies as kids \u2013 and now that they&#8217;re grown up, they&#8217;re still as tight as they&#8217;ve ever been. Even though Phi lives in Los Angeles and Meisha resides in New Jersey, their records demonstrate that physical distance can&#8217;t get in the way of the artistic connection they share. When they get together to rhyme, they do it with a single-minded intensity and that near-telepathic vocal chemistry that only exists between old friends. They&#8217;ve brought their adult experiences to the booth, too, and PM&#8217;s records glow with California heat and East Coast grit, as well as the no-nonsense Midwestern frankness that&#8217;s theirs by birthright.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Touch It&#8217;, a fierce and fiery boast over an irresistible trap beat, is the current single, and it&#8217;s as searing and sexually provocative as any of the big rap hits of the summer. And because a small taste of PM is never enough, we&#8217;re pairing it with &#8220;Get It,&#8221; an earlier release that provides another two minutes and change of their powerful alchemy. In both songs, Phi and Meisha trade verses like best mates in mid-conversation. Best yet, you&#8217;re invited to listen in.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_55901\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2V5a8dQMVlk?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"PM - Touch It [Official Music Video]\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/2V5a8dQMVlk\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although their voices and microphone approaches make them seem like they could be sisters, these two rappers don&#8217;t look alike. The electrifying clips for &#8216;Touch It&#8217;, and &#8216;Get It&#8217;, makes their backgrounds clear: Meisha is African-American, and Phi is Asian-American. They&#8217;ve got a similar taste in clothing, however \u2013 they enjoy tight-fitting outfits that accentuate their curves and highlight their allure. They&#8217;re dressed to kill in the &#8216;Touch It&#8217; clip: they&#8217;re a pair of mutinous workers in an ice cream factory who kidnap the boss, take over the car, and hawk their cool flavours in the way they want to. The &#8216;Get It&#8217; video is even more straightforward \u2013 it&#8217;s just two friends in a fast car, rapping their asses off, and having the times of their lives.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_19513\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fmIbUv7wpoI?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"PM - Get It [Official Music Video]\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/fmIbUv7wpoI\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find PM online <a href=\"https:\/\/linktr.ee\/OfficiallyPM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once you hear &#8216;Touch It&#8217;, and &#8216;Get It&#8217;, we think you&#8217;ll agree that the bond between Phi and Meisha is a powerful one indeed.
