Harlem upstart Dave East made waves in 2014 with his acclaimed mixtape, ‘Black Rose.’ Not content on resting on his rap laurels, the former college basketball hooper is back with his latest release, the appropriately titled ‘Straight Outta Harlem.’
Teaming up with producer Scram Jones, who mixed the entire project, Dave East is back like he never left, delivering 20 tracks of pure uncut and raw hip-hop.
Over a myriad of popular beats, including Drake’s ‘How Bout Now,’ Jeezy and Jay Z’s ‘Seen It All’ and Bobby Shmurda’s ‘Hot Nigga,’ respectively, the Harlemite continues to give fans his gritty, no-frills lyricism.
‘Straight Outta Harlem,’ contains brand new tunes mixed in with a few previously released goodies. Overall, the mixtape should help East gain more fans as they keep a watchful eye on his upcoming moves.
