Andrew says this is off Common’s upcoming best of album, Go! Common Classics. It leaked back in January but this version features all new verses and Queen on the hook. Sounds right to me.
This probably isn’t the chick that made Bobby divorce Whitney on Nas’ “Blaze A 50“, but last night during a concert in Florida, the former king of R&B proposed to girlfriend Alecia Etheridge with their 11 month old son on stage. Congrats. Thir—uh, second time’s a charm. TLF

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.
