A$AP Rocky – Live, Love, A$AP (Mixtape) by Diamond Media 360
I know a GRIP of mixtapes have dropped in the past week with this debut (?) collection by the young uptown gunner, ASAP Rocky probably the most anticipated especially in the wake of his alleged $3 million (:/) deal with RCA/Polo Grounds. While you can of course, probably go access them all easily elsewhere, I’m gonna do my best to post some of them here at The Kitchen anyway ‘cos not all my readers are avid hip hop blog-reading nerds like that….
From the forthcoming posthumous Lioness: Hidden Treasures album dropping on December 5th. My view? STRAIGHT FIYA!!! “Our Day Will Come” is a great cover of a 1963 track by Ruby & the Romantics. And I swear Nas is sounding very Illmatic-era flow on “Like Smoke”, no??
I’ve seen some carping online that the release of some of this unfinished material is a disservice to Amy‘s memory and legacy, but sub-standard Amy is still better than many singers performing at the peak of their abilities and me personally, I’ll take whatever I can get. Enjoy…
