This morning, Waka made the cut as the eighth Hottest MC In The Game. A little while ago, he phoned in with MTV, and was surprised he made the list. We weren’t. “I just looked at it right now in the airport on Twitter, I swear to God. I was like, got-damn! Oh, shit, I made it! Hell yeah, I was [surprised]. Come on, man, I never thought I’d be on something like that. Not yet. It’s so soon.”
We felt this coming in the air. According to AP, Rihanna has severed ties with manager Marc Jordan and has joined Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Management.

Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
