Artwork: Denis from Mighty Healthy. I can’t believe this is finally done. Ha. Here’s the homie DJ Soul‘s 70 minute-plus mastermix of the biggest samples of the past year and change. There’s something here for me, you and your ladyfriend too. It’s pretty fuckin’ funky if I do say so myself. Shit, I am the co-executive producer, I can stunt if I want to! Download here.

Earlier, wale turned to his trusty Twitter account to address the madness. YBF

Yeah, he’s talking to you.
The homie from UGK blessed Angela Yee and I this morning with two exclusives fresh from the stu. We got Bun goin’ on the Snoop instrumental (it’s only right). Check Team Yee for another “Stupid” one.

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.
