Was there ever any doubt? I need to get my paws on this with the quickness.

Chief Keef "Bang 3" - pretty good, but definitely worse than Almighty So and Back from the Dead 2, Keef is heading to a less adventurous area.

Wasn't
Bang 3 originally recorded as the
Finally Rich follow-up? I read part of the Pitchfork review (yeah, I know) and it seemed to confirm this, but I admittedly don't know a great deal about Keef, being only familiar with his guest work and his mixtapes.
But if this is the case, and
Bang 3 has been sitting on the shelf, or in some kind of legal grey area, since Keef's Interscope days, then we can take comfort in the fact that the clean, relatively accessible sound is less an indication of where Chief Keef is going, and more of a relic of where he's been.
Correct me if I'm wrong. I haven't actually heard it yet, but I've really loved his 2015 mixtape arsenal, so I'm much more interested in the prolific, crazy ass post major label Keef than I am in any remaining pop inclinations he may have.

Gunplay's debut - solid album, but the production is outdated and some of the features suck.

I've been looking forward to this one, so I hope it turns out to be a grower. AgainI haven't heard it yet. My ability to download anything other than iTunes music has been severely limited since we moved into this house I'm renovating in the stickiest part of the sticks.

Lil B and Chance tape - fun for the most part but i'll never listen again.

I decided to stay away from this one completely once I realized what the premise was. I want a proper follow up to
Acid Rap (which I've been able to listen to and enjoy again recently, for the first time since I played it into the motherfucking ground back in 2013), and I'm not interested in hearing any more one-off experiments or fuck-arounds. They just aren't doing it for me. Why has Chance been testing fate like this?
The Underachievers were the other big mixtape winners of 2013, and they're about to drop their
second full length official studio LP since
Indigoism! If you count the phenomenal solo EP's AK and Issa have dropped in this time, that basically amounts to 3 full albums' and one mixtape of pure, top quality Underachievers material in the same amount of time Chance has released... uhh... Nothing! He contributed to
Surf, and played Lil B with Lil B, but that motherfucker better get cracking before he misses his shot.

Migos' debut - horrible. Quavo definitely outshines the other two rappers, he needs to go solo and make autotuned R&B ballads.

Sad news.
