Jesus Datpiff has been slacking lately, can't find anything I can listen to all the way through without taking a hammer to my ears.
Wednesday they added DC rapper Wale's Black & Yellow. Free download.
The Title song, Black & Yellow is Wale over the newest radio track by Wiz Khalifa. Wale kills it, and come on, naming a tape after Mike Tomlin? So sick. Anyway the mixtape is full of tracks with great artists, Wiz makes a couple appearances, Talib Kweli has a spot. Even John Mayer on a rap mixtape? Only Wale. I think he took a lot of shit for doing Chillin with Lady Gaga but come one people, like it or not Lady Gaga is a force in music right now, and you'd do a sick song with her if given the chance.
It feels like Wale is going back to his roots more, stylized samples with sick, lyrical flow. Wordplay's beat is 9th Wonder, sick producer. Excellent storytelling throughout. This is a must listen for Wale fans, and hip hop heads in general.
