In the past month, newest signee to the Maybach Music GroupStalley has put out a slew of new music, all leading up to the release of his anticipated mixtape Savage Journey To The American Dream. Not only is the mixtape out now, but a brand new visual from the Rich Forever Rozay mixtape, Party Heart produced by Chuck Inglish is out now as well. MMMMaybach Music!
The Taylor Allderdice Mixtape was just released last week and now the first visual is available for your viewing pleasure. Wiz Khalifa takes you into his life, while he prepares to perform a live show. Sit back and relax because you will definitely want to roll one up for this one.
The mixtape is out and already gold *Update* Platinum 250,000+* on Dat Piff and if you haven't heard, Taylor Allderdice is the new Rich Forever. Wiz Khalifa feels like he didn't get his point across on his debut album, Rolling Papers. He did go certified gold and had three platinum singles, but who's counting. This isn't a Taylor Gang mixtape, although it has several crew features. This is a Wiz taking what he does very seriously.
Even his soon-to-be wife, Amber Rose hops on the sequel to his Kush & Orange Juice classic, Never Been Pt. II. I co-sign her with this one. Here sound is new and fresh, but im unsure of her use of the N word. Am I missing something? Anways, the only similarity with this and Rich Forever is that they are both exceptional albums, I mean mixtapes. What people might not know about young Khalifa is that he is full on Independent. From the label to the crew, they making real money and seeing serious royalties.
Newest signee to the label is OG Grammy winner Juicy J and he appears on almost every track. The trippy king is a good look for the crew. Let’s just say he fits in. He kills tracks like My Favorite Song and T.A.P., which is extra special because it’s produced by A$AP clansman SPVCEGHVSTPVRPPP. I was surprised by the young producer/rapper. His creativeness inspired me immediately. Production is another aspect of the project that takes this mixtape to the level of a studio album.
One of the hottest tracks I like at this moment is the last song on the mixtape called Blindfolded ft. Juicy. New producer buzzin in the industry is Harry Fraud who produced French Montana’s latest smash Shot Caller. Taylor Gang does it all; Raps, Produces, Manages and even engineers their own work. Resident producers/engineers like Sledgren, Big Jerm and Cardo bring fresh noise to the table. Some unique samples are found throughout the tape like chops from The-Dream, Frank Ocean and more. I’ll let you find them. Overall the album gets 5 stars from Next In Show. Everything expected from a young creative genius. Wiz Khalifa’s forthcoming album O.N.I.F.C. is releasing later this year, as well as other camp projects. Download immediately if you haven’t already. Welcome To California Music.
Frank Ocean has had one hell of a year as a new artist, and he wasnt even nominated in the category. It's ok because what the mainstream doesn't know is that Odd Future affiliate has been named the opening act on part of Coldplay's Europe tour. Aside from that he will release the followup to his unofficially official debut album nostalgia, ultra. Frank Ocean has already been recognized as one of the hottest writers in the game and it's only the beginning.
On February 20th Cali's clan Odd Future will drop their long awaited second volume from the OF Mixtape Series. Tyler, The Creator dropped the official album artwork today and it features Odd Future affiliate Lucas Vercetti, Head of Merch, etc. This is perfectly released right before they start a mini-city tour a few weeks later.

From their they Odd Future takeover begins. They are done filming and set to release a new comedy show on Cartoon Network's 'Adult Swim' Channel in late March.
In April the crew is co-headlining the southern california music festival with Killa Bees, Wu-Tang Clan.
Moving on, in May Tyler is releasing his follow-up to GOBLIN with WOLF. This summer MellowHype is releasing their concept album NUMB3RS. They like The Mars Volta, but rappier. All love. If you haven't noticed, Odd Future is in the building.
Ryshon Jones keeps his hustle up by not only releasing a visual to the second installment of 'Late Night With My Best Friend Pt. 2', but just announced he will be releasing a completely new mixtape Happily Unhappy on 2.10.12. After much success with his most recent project, Brightest Nights Darkest Days, its only right that he keeps the energy going. Like I said, stay tuned for more of Ryshon Jones. #nextinshow
Pasadena local and Next In Show affiliate OhJay is prepared for rap game domination in 2012. Her debut mixtape 'Crowd Molesters' releases tonight, the first day of the new year. Start it off right. Check out the exclusive interview below. Also check back for footage from 'Album Release Party' coming soon...
Finally 50 Cent comes out with new material. Not to say that he hasn't been busy...you know, trying to feed a billion children and all. This is a much anticipated mixtape for an Curtis fan. Don't expect to hear the classic sounds of Dr. Dre though. This time 50 enlists a number of next level producer for the project including DJ Khalil, Scoop Deville and Jake One. Another aspect of the album is the features of two new G-Unit artists, Kidd Kidd and femal rapper, Paris. And of course Bossman's humble companion Tony Yayo. G-Unit isn't done yet. Look for suprises in 2012 from 50 Cent.
*Sidenote - 50 Cent recently signed DJ Pauly D to his new label G-Note founded in late 2010 (Pop/Dance/R&B label)
Hip-Hops controversy king 50 Cent is at it again. Set to release the mix-tape "Big 10" which commemorates the 10th anniversary of his "50 Cent is The Future" mix-tape released in 2002. This mix-tape which will obviously feature 10 tracks will also have a video for each one according to 50 Cent. He's been in the media a lot lately, I knew it was for a reason. I expect his fifth album to come out around the time Floyd Mayweather and Pacquiao fight happens.
Also peep the ill graphic work on the cover. Taking courses at a graphic design college would definitely benefit anyone who is working on this production.
“I’m shooting videos for every song on the tape. The BIG 10 I got something for a haters ass it called hits lol #SK,” - 50 Cent
