Tab One isn’t just running laps — he’s running the game. 🏃🏾♂️💨
On this Live in the Lab episode, 1 Man Gang breaks down “I’m Going For A Run,” the latest album from the North Carolina lyricist known for his thoughtful storytelling and razor-sharp delivery.
Across twelve tracks, Tab blends 90s boom-bap, soulful jazz textures, and modern precision, crafting a sound that feels both nostalgic and necessary.
From the laid-back elegance of “Boom Baptist” to the lyrical acrobatics of “Too Much” and the timeless groove of “Gorgeous” — every cut gets tested for consistency, craftsmanship, and replay value.
1MG runs the ROI formula on the full project to determine whether it’s a guaranteed return or a risky investment.
