Paint A Picture and Hate Is The New Love were my first two when I was just the young, hungry rapper from MD by way of DC. I was just trying to show I could spit. I truthfully had no direction, I just wanted people to hear me. 100 Miles & Running was after I hired a manager and linked up with Catchdubs, so we went about creating something a little more cohesive showing I could create “intelligent” rap but it was just my mellow mood; some chill shit. The Mixtape About Nothing was showing that I could do a concept album/mixtape. I appreciate the love and critical acclaim I have gotten for it but Back To The Feature is taking it back to the fun days in hip hop when artists worked with each other for the love and not for the checks or politics. It’s an easy listen; no controversy, no dramatic records. It’s pure hip hop from artists that love to listen to. It’s collaborations with me and other artists like Joe Budden, Currensy, Joell Ortiz, Tre frm UCB, Drake, Bun B, J Cole, Talib Kweli, Royce the 5′9″, XO, Kenn Starr and many others. Here’s another leak: [...] [...] FROM WALE: So I wanted to make a mixtape that was different than any of my previous mixtapes.

It’s pretty damn smooth, and the flow of this tape is pretty high and consistent! From what I’ve heard, this is one of the most anticipated mixtapes of the year! I can honestly see [or better yet, hear] why. There’s a funny story for my discovering of this dude, Wale. I’ve seen his name being thrown across the net for a while- at first I’ve mistaken him for Wale Oyejide, the young ‘afrobeat producer/artist/revolutionary’ who did “There’s A War Goin’ On Outside” with the late, great Jay Dee [at the time], aka J Dilla. Fast fwd time,  and i discovered a track that I’ve seen on a blog that was free for download [forgot the blog's name], but it was off the Mixtape About Nothing called “The Kramer” [search for Kramer racist rant @ the laugh factory on youtube]. Still, I wasn’t paying attention that much to him. But once I heard that he’s linking with 9th Wonder, I immediately showed interest [9th is one of my favorite producers]. Well, the mixtape came out today, well, yesterday.. and I immediately downloaded it. To quote Wale about his mixtape,… “Back To The Feature is taking it back to the fun days in hiphop where artists worked with each other for the love and not for the checks and politics. It’s an easy listen; no controversy, no dramatic records. It’s pure hiphop from artists that we love to listen to.
