Kevin Gates - Just Ride
Artist: Kevin Gates
Featuring: Curren$y
Producer: Grizzly On The Beat
Album: The Luca Brasi Story
Label: Breadwinners Association
Honestly, I hadn’t heard of Kevin Gates before today, but almost instantly I have become a fan; the man’s got flow for days and a very smooth voice. Earlier this month, Gates partnered with rap (and weed) fan favorite Curren$y for mixtape standout selection Just Ride. The whole mood of the record is perfect for the emcee’s nonchalant flow as Grizzly on the Beat‘s bass indulgent production and heavy drums make a dark backdrop for the Louisiana native’s lyrics to slice through. Plus, you can always count on Spitta to give a solid performance as well (see New Jet City for additional recent proof). Those who are in the mood to explore for more from Gates can make a B line straight to The Luci Brasi Story, the emcee’s brand new mixtape that is available for free download.

On the surface Gates might appear to be a trap rapper with a cast of notable friends or and a Gunplay-esque approach, but there is substance to what he is spitting.

This was a good track. The beat bumps and makes you move and Kevin Gates and Curren$y both had good deliveries on the mic.

It's ok. I'd be interested to hear more from this guy, but seems like the same mediocre message most rappers have adopted.
