So late on this but I’ve been running around NY like crazy
Unfortunately a hater, not going to mention who, cut his music off during the performance for the video. And DC people wonder why nobody’s ever made it out of there. SMH
His cover issue hits stands November 4th
Saw this leaked today somehow. Song is over 2 years old but it’s cool that it’s getting some life. I gotta say it’s annoying when I hold off on leaking shit and then someone else does it. No idea who was responsible for this lol. Click HERE to download

This is the first leaked track off “LRG x Wale x 9th Wonder presents: Back To The Feature.” Yes this mixtape is still going down. Yes it’s gonna be fire. And yes you are gonna be blown away to see who we got on here; shit is gonna be outside the box like a kid on Christmas morning (you like that? I just made that up). And yes, 9th flipped the Curtis Mayfield “Short Eyes” sample
that Wale used on “Back In The Go Go” (and also on “Vacation From Ourselves” and that Jay used on “American Gangster”). What you will soon discover about the Back To The Feature Mixtape is that not only do we have ridiculous features on there, but 9th took your favorite rapper’s favorite songs that you probably didn’t even know had samples in it and flipped them. Man I am almost anticipating this as much as I am Wale’s album.
