“Black Friday” the mixtape with only 2 tracks but they are SO FIRE! That no one CARES!
These two FIRE rappers jumped on each other track and WOW!
Kendrick Lamar- SNAPS on “Tale of 2 Cities”
J.Cole –WENT OFF on “Alright”
I mean I almost fell off the couch because of the FIRE they both delivered! Then J.Cole said he dropping something in February! But that tracks cuts off so he left it a mystery.
*Calms Down*
Okay so much awesome music dropped this weekend it was ridiculous! Mixtapes were dropping left and right even the internet broke at one point it was so much downloading going on this weekend. Everything was clearly a must cop! Everybody’s playlist should be on FLEEK! With the release of dope albums last week to these mixtapes that were all surprises this week!
FIRST UP!!!!
Erykah Badu aka Madulla Obluganta aka Analog Girl in A Digital World, FatbellyBella, Annie, DJ. Low Down Loretta Brown, the A the P the P the L..L..E.S! ( you gotta be a fan to know all her names)
Drops the long awaited mixtape “But You Can’t Use My Phone! “
This mixtape is FIRE! I mean legit! And no I am not just saying that because I love her! I mean from top to bottom this mixtape is literally dope and there is no reason to turn it off! It was even full of surprises! And take a guess as to what they were….
The first one was ANDRE 3000!!!!!!! On the mixtape! Yes the collaboration everyone has been waiting on has finally happened! Erykah Badu and Andre 3000 on a track together! The name of the track is entitled “Hello” and 3 Stacks kills the verse as always! This was well worth the wait as fans hope that the rapper changes his mind and gives the fans at least one album! Even if it’s all remixes to his former tracks we will take it!
Next it was the fact that Erykah tweeted that she had a “Burn out” phone and had secretly hid her number on the covers for each track she dropped so that fans could call her! You talking about her phone were LIT for two days in a row! I was sad that I was unable to get through to speak with her personally; I probably would’ve played it cool but try to take up enough time so that nobody could get through. I mean she’s Erykah Badu.
Then on top of EVERYTHING! So many people thought Drake was on the mixtape because there were several tracks were it sounded like Drake. But if you were really listening it was someone different, and to top it off she tweeted
“Drake is not on the mixtape”
Turns out it was her son SEVEN (Andre’s son)! No wonder the lyrics were so dope! I mean his dad is Andre 3 stacks! So of course he has bars! By the way her mixtape broke ITunes because there were so many people trying to buy it …the site had the tracks out of order and some people couldn’t get onto the site.
Then Wayne then drops “No Celings 2” and GUESS WHO HE BROUGHT BACK FOR THE FIRST TRACK?!……
Now I will say off gate I thought this was going to be a terrible mixtape!, because after “Sorry For the Wait, I was so sorry I waited “…because he gave me hope with “No Ceilings” and then he came back with an album that helped me believe in him again but then I ‘m listening to the mixtape and who do I hear?
“Man….Man..Mannie FRESH”! Now if you are hip hop head and certainly if you are a true Wayne fan then you know MANNIE! Being on anything is DOPE! And the production of the track was dope just as he always does. This was EPIC! And as you are listening you get another surprise….CURREN$Y is on the mixtape as well! Now for my true fans you know it’s been a long time since these two did a track together especially after Curren$y left Cash Money years ago.
I have to say it was awesome to see these two working together. But wait let me back up…who remembers Turk? From Cash Money? Okay well I found him a couple of months ago on Twitter and he’s still rapping, well if anyone remembers it was really Turk that was the illest rapper out of the group (no debate) but he’s on the mixtape! To! And still got BARS!
I honestly believe Wayne went back and grabbed the real ones from Cash Money and decided to go in! And it worked.
Alright so here are the other projects that dropped this weekend as well.
Fabolous with the “Summertime Shoutout” mixtape which is Fire of course! I mean its Fabolous! So you expect nothing less. Go get it is all I’m going to say! I mean if you were following him when he was dropping freestyle every Friday then you know this is just what Fab does which is deliver jams!
Chris Brown- Before the Party -34 songs of pure raw content but he’s being himself which is what I am excited about. The one track “Holy Angel” that features Pusha T is dope because both are telling their stories of how their lives have been since they have been in the industry so it’s a must listen to !.
Rick Ross-Renzel Remixes, this one was alright. He basically took a lot of songs and remixed them which were good. I mean Rick Ross never really disappoints so definitely go get it if you are a fan.
Trey Songz- To Whom it May Concern – Trigga Trey is back with that sound we all love, all I’m a say is that he might be the reason that cheating becomes an epidemic and I’m a leave it at that! Lol.
Alright Hunties that’s it for this week!. I’ll be back with some more soon.
