First single from hot producer, Mike WiLL Made-It‘s forthcoming mixtape, #MikeWiLLBeenTriLL with an assist from Wiz Khalifa and Migos. I suppose I’m betraying my out-of-it status by not really knowing who the f-ck Migos is!
And in case you missed it (if that’s even possible for those of you who actively follow contemporary hip-hop, hit the jump for Mike Will Made-It “23” featuring Miley Cyrus, Wiz Khalifa, And Juicy J.
We don’t do this often but how about a little dancehall to kick the day off with? Spotted these on Soundcloud via Toronto dancehall/reggae DJ, Tasha Rozez‘ feed.
