The sound quality is a bit low and the tags don’t help neither. But hey, who’s complaining. Karen Civil got the drop on new music from Andre 3000 off Limelight Exclusives’ new tape. I do like that. UPDATE: No Tags. Word is this will appear on Jeezy’s TM 103. Remember, where you heard it first. 2db

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.
