What’s good. I just downloaded the mixtape this morning and was bangin’ it in the ride on the way to work. The Roc Boys Freestyle (#4) had me going ridiculous in the ride. I know people were looking thinking I was buggin’ out in the ride.
I haven’t heard anything like that in awhile. But overall the mixtape is off the cliff. I thought 100 Miles and Running was fire but this one is the Sun.
May 30th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
gotta give props to wale and dan for this project!! thanks soooo much for this drop!!

[…] I was going to pen something about the new Wale mixtape that has the internets going nuts right now, but then I spotted this piece by my colleague and homey Sarah Godfrey. Its one thing to be a blogger writing about a free mixtape download after the fact, but to get a piece in The Washington Post 3 days before the CD drops is some straight gangster hip hop journalism. And she’s right. It’s actually pretty good. I’m glad this mixtape about nothing is actually kind of about SOMETHNG. Leave it to Wale — tight MC and unabashed “Seinfeld” fanatic — to successfully mine a sitcom about a neurotic comedian fond of tight jeans and white sneakers for nuggets relevant to hip-hop music and culture. “The Mixtape About Nothing” can be appreciated by “Seinfeld” admirers who aren’t so big on the hip-hop music and by heads unfamiliar with the term “shrinkage,” but for those who are fans of both the music and the television show, the album’s arrival is like Christmas, Hanukkah and Festivus all rolled into one.

amazing cd. sadly i won’t be able to own the shirt or the cd… unless ebay helps me out
May 31st, 2008 at 9:19 am
I ain’t from DC but DAMN!!! I been waiting for forever, it’s gonna be fun explain to my gangsta friends why I got George Costanza talking to Cosmo Kramer (which you played with the N*gger situation) but what can I say, its Wale!
May 31st, 2008 at 10:28 am
The Kramer. just got to it. That’s seriously the truth. You killed it. I heard a white kid at my school say n*gga as he reciting a song…you explained the situation completely…he said what do you mean it’s just a word in a song…ignorance. Anyway, I’ma keep listening to this wonderful exclusive music…Word to my mutha! Yall keep doing big things…I’ma be here supporting No doubt!

[…] Finally. Wale - The Mixtape about Nothing (Free for download here). An entire mixtape inspired by Seinfeld, including a guest appearance by Julia Louis-Dreyfus. On paper, I should really like Wale - clever multi-syllabic rhymes, obscure references, Nigerian! He’s ridiculous though, to the point where it takes multiple listens to catch everything he’s rapping about. On The Chicago Falcon Remix, Mark Ronson interrupts the track to ask him to slow it down and explain what’s going on: Counting my bread. My account like a brunch at a synagogue. Get it y’all, that’s a whole lot of bagels… I get seinfeld with these rhyme skills, I’m Larry David. Give me my paper. It’s a cosmo like Jerry Sein’s neighor. My co-stanzas stand like Phantoms or Maybachs. You won’t get a lane if you came wack. I hate rap like Kramer hates blacks… […]

[…] D.C. rapper Wale has been keeping busy recently: he just signed a deal with Interscope for his first album, appeared on The Roots new album, Rising Down, and managed to release a new, full length mixtape, entitled The Mixtape About Nothing. Drawing off of Wale’s love for the TV show Seinfeld, the tape loosely ties in to the show (and even includes a short cameo by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who played Elaine on the show), while still showcasing Wale’s above-average rapping skills and hypnotic drawl he has become known for. The material on this tape is a little darker than on 100 Miles and Running, his previous mixtape collaboration with former Fader affiliate and current Fool’s Gold ringleader Nick Catchdubs. Best of all, the tape is available for free. You can download it here. […]

[…] He’s part of a new mixtape movement (post DJ Drama) that has been forced to release mixtapes for free (also check out Wale’s “Mixtape About Nothing”). Not only have mixtapes survived but have now thrived because by not selling them, artists no longer have to clear samples and have a limitless catalog to pull from. The results are Spec Boogie interpreting Peter, Bjorn, and John, The Black Keys, etc. while Cudi takes on Gnarls Barkley and Outkast. And did I mention its free. And free music makes me happy. See how happy it makes me… […]
