Is it just me, or has R&B been getting a little dark lately? Whether due to the influence of fresh blood like Frank Ocean and The Weeknd, a change in the tides, or some mysterious circumstances beyond my understanding, even your straightforward love/lust songs have begun to develop an ominous edge—and I have to say, I’m really digging it. On the title track off his Booth-hosted street album, Tank embraces the trend wholeheartedly, departing from the romantic themes of his past hits to offer listeners a glimpse into the Diary of a Mad Man. “The Composer handles production duties, layering synth arpeggios, reverb-drenched guitar riffs and ghostly backing vocals over a slow-burning rhythm section as the veteran crooner schools us on a few harsh truths (“I’m bout to spill the truth on these n*ggas, and I’m bound to lose a fan…”). How about it, readers—are you feeling the power of Tank’s words? If so, make sure to work a visit to The DJBooth into your Black Friday plans; Diary of a Mad Man is set to hit our mixtape page for free streaming and download on Friday, November 25.

If this is the kind of music a mad man makes, then lets all hope Tank stays angry forever. This mixtape - trust me - is excellent. Good for Tank for embracing his non-traditional R&B side and releasing some quality free tunes.

This mixtape is off the hook! I love hearing the dark and tough side of Tank. It's very different than the other stuff that he has put out up to now. My favorites are (not in any particular order):

Diary of a Mad Man
Dead Man Walking
Tip Yo Cup

keep putting out music, Tank! You are so talented fo sho. I'm ur fan for life, bro.
