"Don't die" is certainly Song of the Year. Track is on some next level shyt.

Vivid. Disrespectful. Crunk. Political. Just :wow:
like others have said, that whole 3 song sequence (Ronald Reagan, Don't Die, Ghetto Gospel) is just crazy. also Untitled. Plus the beats feel fresh.

but again that song don't die. and the beat switch :wow:

might go see Killer Mike in august. he's coming to montreal for the Osheaga Festival. snoop is also suppose to be there but it's probably not on the same day and i'm not paying for 2 days.

Yes Sir. Killer Mike spittin' with crazy hunger and aggression plus he brings you right into the story, like you right there with him Gold grillin' and cussin' out them cops. shyt blew my mind the first time I heard it.

I don't see how anyone can say it ain't the track of the year :manny:

Gotta give AOTY to Nas right now. I did like Krit's album a lot tho and it had the title up until I dug into Nas album.

Even tho Joey Badass 1999 was a mixtap its still definitely one of my favorite projects to drop this year along with Krit's mixtape.

I also still jam The Game- Cali Republic and Rick Ross- Rich Forever a lot. Both projects are heavy on my gym playlist.
