    Hey A-trak, i’m doing my first mixtape and i really want to put the rapper’s delight into it. I already know how to mix in (with good times) but i can’t find any rap song that fits with it. Yes it’s because i’m an amateur, but maybe you could help me. Sorry for knocking@your blog, but are you on any forums?
    /ON

    what about onra!?

  15. sensistar says:

    Just goes to show you how weak the music was last year.

    Drake the #1 song. Was that even rap. You could say the same about Kanye.
    Rick Ross with BMF. Hot beat. Terrible song.

    Every year the last decade I think it can’t get any worse. But it does.
