Add-2 Save.Our.Souls [New Music]

Chicago native MCAdd- 2 reconnects with LRG to releases his latest mixtape (closer to street album than mixtape) Save.Our.Souls.  With production by 9th Wonder Kryhsis and usually contributes like Antman Wonder, IlL MeeL and Ken B you can expect the soul meter to be pretty high. Add-2's lyrics are razor sharp giving you great metaphors and witty punchlines for 20 tracks of Hip Hop gold that ends with a well deserved big up from Common to lead into the Ghetto Dreams freestyle. Listen to a track down below and pick up the new tape here and also check out Add-2's other releases here.


 

Common - Celebrate [Music Video]

Common: Official

Don't expect anything but the best from Chi-Town's greatest, COMMON. The Dreamer/The Believer was the best way for me to top off my 2011. The 12 tracks on the album were the soulful inspiring vibrations that moved me into a new place and prepared me for a new year of epic growth and extraordinary adventures. Celebrate was the first track I heard from the album and it immediately caught my attention. With each listen it feels as if Common unveils a new rhyme and new sounds from NO I.D.'s production are felt. Thank You Common and NO I.D. for creating something we all have been waiting for. For the dreamers. For the world world world.
