Streets Of Compton is dope though. I like its looseness.
Didn't anyone hear "Sauce"? I guess that's just a throwaway single, but its' good.
I have high hopes for 1992.

The word "Mixtape" has more or less lost all meaning.
Have you heard Everybody Looking? The new fresh-out-da-Feds Gucci album? It plays like a high-end mixtape. There are producer shoutouts "MOIK WILL MADE IT") and different producers on just about every track. But it's for sale and even has a physical copy that made its way to stores super fast.
I have to say, I hate those shout-outs. HATE them. They're almost as bad as DJ shout outs from when radio jocks were making these things. Both of them are irritating and unnecessary and undermine the artistic quality of the music. They're Fucking commercials. Ugh.
Anyway...
