Dee from Pump It Up digs into the business of one of rap’s greatest groups. Guess who parted ways not too far after this interview was conducted. Nothing lasts forever, huh?

“It’s always this looming thing that my first album was called College
Dropout that me and my mother always argued about. But it wasn’t called
the High School Dropout. I feel like high school is a necessity.
Anything that you have to pay for is your choice.”
Last night, Kanye had a homecoming, performin’ in the Chi at a benefit conference for his moms’ Dr. West’s foundation. In the above press conference clip, he talks about his plans for a program that will provide production equipment in high schools and, after the jump, the first 7 minutes of the concert.

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.
