Maybach Music Group - Power Circle
Artist: Maybach Music Group
Featuring: Rick Ross , Wale , Stalley , Kendrick Lamar
Producer: Lee Major
Album: Self Made Vol. 2
Label: Maybach Music Group/Warner Bros.
When you’ve got the entire MMG roster (minus Omarion) appearing on the same cut, you expect a banging, DJ Khaled-esque posse cut, right? Wrong. Instead el generalissimo Rick Ross decides to take things in a completely different direction, showcasing his crew’s lyrical prowess on new release Power Circle. Producer Lee Major lays down a slowly unwinding piano beat that allows Ross to kick off the festivities with a short opening verse/introduction before stepping aside for Gunplay to get aggressive on the mic. From there it’s MMG’s youngest member, Stalley, to really up the lyrical ante, a wordplay driven challenge that Wale is more than able to meet on his verse, and then Philly boss Meek Mill finishes the MMG crew’s offerings with a solid verse of his own. But, as always, it’s the visiting Kendrick Lamar who overshadows the home team, laying down some of the unique flows that have earned him a spot near the top of the emcee food chain. With a change of pace like this I officially don’t know what to expect when MMG’s Self Made Vol. 2 drops, I just know to expect it on June 26.

Major kudos to MMG and their success the past few years, but how are you going to invite an emcee like Kendrick Lamar on board and let him just take over the INTRO track of your compilation album? I know this wasn't the plan, but what I got from the first 7 minutes of "Self Made, Vol. 2" is that Kendrick is better than anyone on the MMG roster (and album).

This song is hard, even gunplay stepped up. I don't think we should just concentrate on Kendrick, It was a solid group effort.
