More footage on way including guest appearances by J.Cole and Fabolous. Missed out? Your Loss!
Yaowa! Joell Ortiz visited Funkmaster Flex on Hot 97 last night and blessed the airwaves for about five minutes over a gang of bangin’ instrumentals. This dude is the truth. ifwt
Freeze! Polo Dro’s latest gets an upgrade with the bossman and Gooch. Pretty chill. Hopefully P.O.L.O. is just as ill. hhnm

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.

Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
