Yesterday So Far Gone was proclaimed mixtape of the year by MTV. When I heard this I first thought to myself...Did they listen to "Enemy Of The State: A Love Story"? But then I started to think to myself, maybe I am being a little biased. Yes I do believe that when it comes to a complete work of hip-hop that when it comes to a mixtape going in so many different directions and a artist just going in it is hard to compete with Lupe. He showed how versatile he was by hopping on beats from "All The Way Turnt Up" to "National Anthem" to "Say Something". But Drake at the same time did this going from "Unstoppable" to "Uptown" to "Best I Ever Had". But I do not think that Drake came close to delivering the lyrical content that Lupe.
But on another note, I also believe that there are other mixtapes that should be in the hunt for mixtape of the year beside "So Far Gone". Me personally I definitely feel like Lupe takes but I think that Wiz Khalifa should get some sort of recognition, as well as the Cool Kids, and I will admit I even think that "No Ceilings" should be up there "So Far Gone". But then again this is MTV we are talking about so who knows.
