16-year-old Adrian Stresow and 14-year-old Levi Hinson formed a group “Young Minds” in January of 2014. After dropping successful solo projects, the emcees are gearing up to drop their debut mixtape, Cartoon Astronauts, on August 1.

The Cartoon Astronauts mixtape will be a free download.

“Cartoon Astronauts is our debut project, so we really wanted people to get to know us for who we really are,” says Levi Hinson in a press release. “Not only is it 100% written, recorded, and produced by us, but it also showcases a variety of musical moods. This album is funny, happy, serious, sad, strange, melancholy, and just about any other mood you can think of. Cartoon Astronauts is symbolic of using what you love as means of escape from the chaos of life. Flying free using the things you really love to do. In our case, music is our escape. That’s basically the concept of the whole project, and we hope that people can really relate to it and enjoy it.”
