Top 10 Mixtapes of all time!!

Top 10 mix tapes of all time....



10.) ASAP Rocky - LiveLoveASAP


This tape catapulted ASAP Rocky to covers of magazines as well as making clams casino a sought out producer in the music community. showcasing tracks such as "Wassup", "Paso" "Purple Swag" and "Brand new guy"  featuring schoolboy Q makes this mix tape memorable but a few of the features were kind of iffy.







9.) Tyga - Black Thoughts 


Young Moneys artist Tyga lands in the ninth slot been mainly because I only really liked a few of the tracks, but the tracks were good enough to make my top 10 list. "Tyga Tyga" is probably my favorite track off the tape.











8.) B.O.B - Who The Fuck Is B.O.B?


This mix tape had some bangers such as "I'll be in the sky" an "Lonely People" it also showcased something we haven't heard in quite a while, somebody talking about real issues Bobby Ray touched on with the track "Generation Lost"











7.) The Weekend - Thursday


Although this tape only showcases nine tracks it blew up fast showcasing his amazing voice and drawn out song lyrics. This is a tape that can easily be listened to from beginning to end.












6.) Meek Millz - Dreamchasers 2


Philadelphia native is no stranger to the hip-hop community. He's been doing his thing on the streets of Philly for years. It was only after Rick Ross signed him that he became relevant in other cities. After dream chasers 2 came out. It was a Internet sensation. Although Meek hasn't put together any radio hits. He stays true to his roots and has a loyal street following.





5.) Yelawolf - Trunk Muzik


Born and raised is in Alabama this good old country boy push the envelope with his mix tape Trunk Muzik. this tape could be known for blowing speakers making you have excessive sex, causes police chases and new Alabama stereotypes, as well as shotgun sales,











4.) Big K.R.I.T - Return of 4eva



Big Krits tape Return of forever below up on datpiff.com. The tape was almost as real as it gets for someone on the outside to see what it is like in the mind of a starving artist trying to make it with his music. From the jump the intro says it all. It starts with him getting ready to go onto a stage at a sold old show but then his alarm clock goes off because it was all a dream. I loved "Dreamin" an "American Rap Star"





3.) Drake - So Far Gone


What can I say about this mix tape that hasn't been said already? You know you're blowing up when you drop a mix tape an go on a country wide tour preforming songs off your mix tape to sold out shows. My favorite track had to be "Congratulations" just because of the line "I got your dream girl riding around in your dream car"








2.) Wiz Khalifa - Kush An Orange Juice


This tape was voted #1 mix tape of 2010 for good reason. When this dropped I think I listed to it on replay for about two weeks an smoked about one hundred joints an drank a few cartons of orange juice (I don't even drink orange juice) Wiz did his thing on this tape I don't have to emphasize or explain.






Now as for my number one mix tape of all time ( echo time) 




and the winner is...........












1.) J Cole - The Warm Up  


This tape claims the number one spot on my list, simply because of the all-around solidness of this tape
this was finished around the same time Jay-Z offered J Cole a deal and inspired him to make the last track on the tape simply called "Last Call".


I could go on and on about what tracks I like the most, but a buddy of mine showed me the track "Dreams" an I was hooked. 


Tracks that need to be on constant repeat
"Welcome", "The badness" "World Is Empty" "Can I Live" "Lights Please" an last but not lease "Losing My Balance"




I'm sure some people will disagree with some of my picks, But then again this is my blog. I didn't take a vote or a survey. This is just from personal preference. Feel free to leave me any comments, hate or love about this list. Don't worry I won't read them anyway. (Just kidding I will)
