No, it isn’t April Fools’ Day, and we didn’t deliberately mix up the mp3s to trick Boothgoers into listening to country music. (Though, now that I think about it, that would have been hilarious.) The snippet of Marc Collie’s In Time that serves as intro to I-20‘s latest mixtape leak may throw some listeners for a loop, but it could hardly be a better mood-setter; making its world premiere right here in the Booth, Bury Me has a morbid vibe that’ll make fans of old-school country and blues feel right at home. Backed by the desolate yet banging boardwork of Salaam Remi, the deep-voiced ATLien says his final goodbyes and proceeds to describe what he’d like to go down at his funeral service. All the women he’s ever loved will bring their finest friends, the preacher will read out of the rapper’s own rhyme book, and drug use will be not only encouraged but compulsory: “Make everyone pop a pill, I want ‘em rollin’ when I die.” Now that’s a celebration of life. Does this banging dose of gallows humor leave you craving more? Keep it locked for the latest on I-20’s DJ Bobby Black-hosted They Grey Area mixtape, which currently lacks a release date.

Kudos to I-20 for hooking up with producer Salaam Remi and coming with a record that I would have never ever expected him to make. Seriously, I didn't expect this sound or approach and its super pleasant surprise (despite the tone of the record being very dreary).

Eh...ok record. The approach is definitely interesting but I-20's flow gets boring very quickly.

Ok although the country sample had me off for a sec it's a nice intro to a Salaam Remi beat. I-20 delivers his ordinary lyrics with a sort of chopped but not screwed hook. It's aight but i know I-20 has more to offer so i will look forward to later projects

Hes got to chil with his aggressive flow, the track doesn't need all that anger just because of the production.
