C4

A raw, high-energy 2009 mixtape of K-Dot rapping over Lil Wayne's iconic instrumentals. Hunger, rapid-fire flows, and the unpolished blueprint of a future giant.

January 30, 2009 · Kdiddy

Adopting the raspy vocal inflections and wheezy cadence of Lil Wayne, a young MC tests his technical limits by rapping directly over the loud, compressed instrumentals of a mainstream blockbuster. The performance is a hyper-focused, athletic display of double-time flows and snapping 808s that trades conceptual weight for pure competitive bravado.

Moments Worth Listening For

04Another MilliThe vocal delivery on 'Another Milli' mimics the signature croaky laugh and eccentric timing of Lil Wayne over the original track's looping synth brass.
